Structural Failures — Causes, Investigation, Resilience, Mitigation & Standardization
A global platform for engineers, researchers, practitioners, policymakers and the wider structural engineering community to share knowledge, experience and innovation.
Engineering lessons into resilient structures
The Symposium addresses structural failures through investigation, resilience, mitigation and standardisation, with a strong bridge between engineering theory and practice.
Causes & Investigation
Material degradation, fatigue, design errors, construction defects, foundation failures, environmental factors, human errors, quality control and forensic engineering.
Explore themeBuilding Resilience
Resilience-based design, performance-based engineering, redundancy, progressive collapse prevention, climate adaptation, seismic and wind resistance.
Explore themeMitigation & Codes
Retrofitting, monitoring, risk management, maintenance, advanced materials, emergency response, code evolution, harmonisation and professional ethics.
Explore themeA forum for knowledge, diagnosis & action
The Symposium is organised by the Indian National Group of IABSE and will bring together leading engineers, researchers, practitioners and policymakers. The programme includes plenary/keynote sessions, technical sessions, case studies, exhibitions and a dedicated Young Engineers Program.
