IABSE Logo

The IABSE emblem was created by the Japanese Group for the 10th Congress of IABSE in Tokyo, 1976. The design represents ideogramm of 'Human Being' or at the same time the sacred mountain, of which the slopes are covered by green pine-trees aflame in the setting sun. The meaning of the logo captures the fundament of all our technical expertise: mankind, nature, and spiritual endeavour. The Executive Committee wished to adopt this symbol for the Association and the Japanese Group remitted it to IABSE at the Closing Ceremony of the Congress.
