Ninth International Conference on Earthquake Resistant Engineering Structures, A Coruña, Spain
Major earthquakes and associated effects such as tsunamis continue to stress the need to carry out more research on these topics. The problems will intensify as population pressure results in construction works in regions of high seismic vulnerability. A better understanding of these phenomena is required to design earthquake resistant structures.
The problem of protecting the built environment in earthquake-prone regions involves not only the optimal design and construction of new facilities, but also the upgrading and rehabilitation of existing structures, including heritage buildings.
The event will provide attendees with an opportunity to discuss the basic and applied research in the various fields of earthquake engineering relevant to the design of construction structures.For further information, please visit:
