Topics covered include: *Loadings on structures, including accidental loading, earthquakes and fire. *Effects of the methods of construction on response to abnormal loading. *Development of new materials and construction techniques. *Behaviour of engineering materials. *Inspection, monitoring, repair and rehabilitation of structures. *Non-destructive testing for monitoring and assessment. *Structural safety and risk analysis. *Numerical simulation and modelling. *Case studies of on-site testing of structures. This book will be essential reading for civil and structural engineers, designers and researchers.
