"The recent years, safety, reliability, risk and life-cycle performance management of structures and infrastructure have been emergent and key issues due to the frequent occurrence of natural and man-made hazards, the infrastructure crisis, sustainability issues and global warming. In dealing with these problems uncertainties are unavoidable. The society can no longer afford to ignore congested roads, deficient bridges, aging dams, broken levees and water mains. The importance of costs associated with managing existing structures and infrastructures is increasingly recognized." FINE HARDCOVER. no cd. Not issued with a dust jacket.
