Original Abstract

The overall motivation of Commission 2 is based on the fact that structural systems are typically designed to stay in service for at least several decades. This implies that proper attention must be given to structural performance under various actions, both man-made and environmental, to the methodology of structural analysis and assessment, to material properties, to the inverse identification and monitoring of structural resistance among others. The main focus is on existing structures, such as concrete buildings and bridges. Commission 2 considers itself responsible for the active support of the topic "safety and performance concepts of concrete structures" and for the active support of associated commissions. It comprises gathering and providing new technologies and techniques by considering both fundamental research and practical issues in the area of the aforementioned topic. The aim of Commission 2 is to provide a comprehensive overview of the theoretical and practical developments in the areas of structural safety, serviceability and reliability, to promote understanding of advanced methodology including probabilistic methods, inverse analyses techniques, monitoring methods, and to encourage application of these methods to improve structural performance and minimize life-cycle cost.
