There are over 170 papers written by Authors from around 40 countries worldwide. The contributions include 6 Keynote Papers and 12 Special Invited Papers. In line with the aims of the SEMC 2001 International Conference, and as may be seen from the List of Contents, the papers cover a wide range of topics under a variety of themes. There is a healthy balance between papers of a theoretical nature, concerned wit 606 $aStructural analysis (Engineering)$vCongresses 606 $aStructural engineering$vCongresses 615 0$aStructural analysis (Engineering) 615 0$aStructural engineering 676 $a624 676 $a624.1 676 $a624.1 21 701 $aZingoni$b Alphose$01560651 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784635703321 996 $aStructural Engineering, Mechanics, and Computation$93826782 997 $aUNINA
