Abstract: Conference segment Challenges in Design and Management of Structures provides a forum for discussion on problems related to structural performance for the whole life cycle of the civil engineering structures. It covers advances in design of new and assessment of existing structures based on lessons learned from practice, from collapses, from successes, aiming optimization of structural life cycle management decisions.
Rating and weighting of performance indicators from component, through system, up to network level is a crucial for optimal management of structures aiming their safety, durability and reliability, security and serviceability, availability and maintainability.
Application of scientific achievements in linear and nonlinear analysis methods, numerical modelling and simulation, data updating and processing, semi and full probabilistic based methods with adequate treatment of uncertainties is envisaged to improve design of new and assessment and maintenance of existing infrastructures.
Editors wish to thank the authors for their efforts at producing and delivering papers of high standard. We are sure that this Proceedings will be a valued reference of research topics in this important field and that it will together with the other volumes from SMSS conference form a suitable base for discussion and suggestions for future development and research.
