HMS Symposium 2026 starts on November 2, 2026.

The symposium is held in Tampa, Florida.

The listed audiences include bridge owners, government agencies, designers, contractors, and suppliers.

It is most useful for bridge owners, engineers and contractors who work on movable bridges, since the symposium is a biennial forum that brings owners, government agencies, designers, contractors and suppliers together, and the sponsors include design firms such as HNTB Corporation, Modjeski & Masters, WSP, USA and Stantec. Professionals outside movable and heavy structures, such as general bridge or highway engineers, would find the subject too narrow to justify the trip to Tampa.

Attendees at engineering and bridge-industry symposia usually wear business casual, such as collared shirts and slacks, with jackets more common on presentation days.
