When compared to the volume of construction undertaken, the number of failures of buildings and other structures is thankfully small. However, failures do occur and for a variety of reasons. Information about failures is vital to make construction even safer. This book contains contributions from a number of distinguished international experts and considers many facets of what has become termed forensic engineering. Numerous case studies from modern and historic buildings and structures - from the tower at Pisa to transmitter masts - provide a book of value for practitioners and students alike. |
