Summary:
"ACI Committee 377 sponsored two sessions during the Fall 2014 ACI convention in Washington, DC to highlight the importance of structural integrity and resilience of reinforced concrete and precast/prestressed structures subjected to extreme loading conditions. The sessions sought papers on topics including improving the structural integrity of structures, minimum level of required integrity, integrity of precast/prestressed structures, performance-based structural integrity and resilience, infrastructure resilience, issues and new developments in modeling, and assessment of existing structures. Both experimental and analytical investigations were presented. This special publication includes eight papers that were presented during the sessions"--Preface.
