This book provides a single source of information on structural assessment techniques for marine and land-based structures and offers professionals from a broad range of disciplines a better understanding of current practice, how to apply the latest advanced design and development technologies in condition assessment, and likely future trends. Chapters are grouped in five broad themes: current practices and standards for structural condition assessment; fundamental mechanisms and advanced mathematical methods for predicting structural deterioration; residual strength assessment of deteriorated structures; reliability of aged structures; and survey, inspection and maintenance. 2010-04-27T04:36:30.384Z ]]>
