The failure of civil engineering structure will lead to heavy losses.
Introduction During the service processing, due to using or environment and other reasons, civil engineering structures often produce and exist the different degree damage and even cause structural collapse.
So the relative wavelet entropy may be used to identify structural damage location Tab.3 The damage time scenarios of test beam Scenarios Damage moment Simulation state Scenario 1 4th second discharge a quality block Scenario 2 1.8th and 3th second discharge two quality blocks Fig.10 The bar chart of damage location of test beam under three scenarios Fig.11 The bar chart of damage time of test beam Acknowledgements This work was financially supported by the China National Natural Science Foundation (50878198) References [1] Dajian HAN, Wendong WANG: Journal of South China University of Technology (Natural Science), Vol. 31(1) (2003), p. 91-96, In Chinese [2] Zengshou SUN: Study on Wavelet-based Damage Identification Method for Civil Engineering Structures [D], Fuzhou, China, 2006, In Chinese [3] Jian GUO, Zhengwei GU and Bingnan SUN: Engineering

Introduction New civil engineering construction is the largest industry in the world, accounting for more than 10% of the world's gross domestic product (GDP).
Although successful applications have been developed recently, the damage assessment of complex structures such as buildings and bridges remains a challenging task for civil engineers.
Rivera [13] introduced the term Civionics, which involves the application of electronics to civil structures and aims to assist engineers in realizing the full benefits of structural health monitoring (SHM).

The experimental investigation at the Faculty of Civil Engineering SUT (STU) in Bratislava was planned for slender concrete columns made of different concrete strength classes - C45/55, C70/85 and C100/115.
The experiments were realized at the Faculty of Civil Engineering SUT in Bratislava with cooperation of ZIPP Bratislava LTD Company.
When the characteristic strength of concrete reached 60%, experimental columns – samples were conveyed to the laboratory of Civil Engineering Faculty SUT (STU) Bratislava.
Experimental verification After these theoretical and practical preparation, the concrete columns were tested in the laboratory of the Civil Engineering Faculty SUT (STU) Bratislava.

The SMA: an effective damper in civil engineering that smoothes oscillations Vicenç Torra1,a, Carlota Auguet1, Guillem Carreras1,Lamine Dieng2,b, Francisco C.
Two types of applications can be considered in damping of structures in Civil Engineering.
The earthquake engineering would require an excellent performance during one or two minutes, i.e., nearly 200 – 1000 working oscillations, after a lot of years or decades at rest.

The so-called road and bridge engineering is set up by road and bridge engineering discipline committee under the transportation vocational education teaching steering committee set by the Ministry of Education, which consists of road and bridge engineering, highway engineering cost management, and other 23 specialties relating road &bridge engineering.
Most of these specialties are in higher vocational colleges, especially in road and bridge engineering, or civil engineering of the traffic higher vocational colleges.
But its professional categories cover four major categories: transportation type, resource development, surveying and mapping, civil groups, environmental meteorology and safety categories; eight secondary discipline categories: road transport, urban rail transportation, railway transportation, surveying and mapping, civil construction, construction management, municipal engineering, security and so on.
The training of advanced technology applied talents for highway engineering construction test as the goal, for example, some schools professional name is "highway engineering testing technology", some is "civil engineering testing technology" and "road and bridge engineering testing technology", etc. 2.
Male, Sichuan Guangyuan, Sichuan traffic vocational and technical college lecturer, master of architecture and civil engineering, research direction: road and bridge engineering Ren Yixue (1961 -).

The 7th volume of the journal Engineering Innovations contains articles that accent the reader's attention on the latest engineering design and results of research in materials science, engineering design, urban transport network development issues, wastewater treatment, investigation of thermophysical properties of alternative engine fuel, etc.
The presented articles will be helpful to many engineers and researchers in materials, mechanical engineering, civil engineering and environmental protection.
