Prepared by the Subcommittee on Evaluation, Maintenance, and Upgrading of Timber Structures of the Committee on Wood of the Structural Division of ASCE. This report presents information on technical aspects of inspection, evaluation, reinforcement, repair, and rehabilitation of timber structures. Any structure, regardless of the material from which it is made, may be subject to a review of its ability to perform a specific function or functions. This report reviews factors that influence the serviceability of wood structures, including loadings, duration of loads, temperature, moisture and weathering. Effects of chemicals and fire, as well as insects, fungi, and other organisms that attack wood are also covered. Designing to avoid problems caused by these factors is discussed. Inspection techniques and equipment are described, along with guidelines on where to look and what to look for. A section of evaluation of wood structures includes criteria such as structural analysis, determination of loads, and estimating load carrying capacity.

This book contains a comprehensive guide to the latest developments in building and bridge construction. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the use of advanced materials such as fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites and the incorporation of smart technologies into design and construction of buildings and bridges. The book discusses advantages of using FRP composites in building and bridge construction. It then goes on to explore the use of smart technologies, such as sensors and structural health monitoring systems, to improve performance and safety of structures. It also covers the use of advanced concrete and masonry materials and methods, including high-performance concrete, self-consolidating concrete, and advanced masonry systems. The book is written for engineers, architects, and construction professionals and provides a detailed overview of the latest research and developments in the field. It includes case studies and practical examples to illustrate key concepts and techniques, making it an invaluable resource for those involved in building and bridge construction. With its comprehensive coverage of the latest advances in building and bridge construction, "Advances in Concrete, Masonry and FRP Composite Smart Buildings and Bridges" is an essential guide for anyone looking to stay current with the latest trends and technologies in the industry.

Throughout the world, wood products and engineered wood structures have a tremendous economic significance, but the wood industry has historically received less attention and a lower degree of financial support for new development than other construction materials. At the same time, reliability-based design procedures (RBD) for engineered structures are being developed and are rapidly gaining acceptance by code agencies throughout the world. In this state of the art review of Reliability-Based Design of Engineered Wood Structures the reader will find a complete vade mecum for reliable wood-based construction, including the fundamentals of reliability-based design, its development for structural timber, and work towards a global harmonization of timber engineering codes and standards. For all those engineers, builders and formulator of building standards and codes of practice whose work involves structural timber, Reliability-Based Design of Engineered Wood Structures offers up to date support and information.

This volume presents the proceedings of the 18th International Probabilistic Workshop (IPW), which was held in Guimarães, Portugal in May 2021. Probabilistic methods are currently of crucial importance for research and developments in the field of engineering, which face challenges presented by new materials and technologies and rapidly changing societal needs and values. Contemporary needs related to, for example, performance-based design, service-life design, life-cycle analysis, product optimization, assessment of existing structures and structural robustness give rise to new developments as well as accurate and practically applicable probabilistic and statistical engineering methods to support these developments. These proceedings are a valuable resource for anyone interested in contemporary developments in the field of probabilistic engineering applications.
