Proceedings of the "19th Conference on the Rehabilitation and Reconstruction of Buildings" are the result of discussion new trends and procedures in the field of rehabilitation and reconstruction of buildings and structures. This collection will be useful and interesting for many engineers and researchers which activity is related to this area of construction.
This collection of papers and keynote lectures presented at the 9th International Conference on the Behaviour of Steel Structures in Seismic Areas (Stessa2018, Christchurch, New Zealand, February 14-17, 2018) is a comprehensive overview of the recent state-of-the-art developments in the field of seismic resistant steel structures. The book is a valuable source for all stakeholders involving scientists, professionals, companies, and authorities dealing with the reduction of the seismic risk in earthquake prone countries.
Selected problems in statics, dynamics of buildings and bridges and wind engineering are discussed in these papers. New approaches in theoretical solution, numerical modeling and experimental measurements have been presented. Also some properties of selected materials are investigated. The topics of papers in this book are actual, and they would be interesting for other scientists and experts.
