Membership
Page still under preparation
Membership categories in IFS comprise:
- MEMBER,
- ASSOCIATE MEMBER, or
- FRIEND.
Members and Associate Members are required to pay an annual membership fee which allows them to get, free of charge, the digital files for the Ferrocement Model Code and one other for-pay document. They will have free access to the Ferrocement Journal when published.
Friends of IFS are encouraged to simply register their name, email address, city and country of residence; this is important to allow IFS to show the interest of users worldwide and maintain its status as a non-profit organization in the US. Similarly to Members and Associate Members, Friends can download any free or for-pay document from the IFS web site.
Members are eligible (and encouraged) to participate in IFS technical committees and vote in such committees. They also have access to the directory of other IFS Members. Associate Members can attend committee meetings and be on the email list of IFS technical committees, but they cannot vote on committee matters.
IFS will not share its email list with any other organization, and will only communicate with all members and friends by email regarding important activities such as the organization of a symposium, a short course, an important new publication, or the building of an important ferrocement structure.
