OBJECTIVES & THEME

THE OBJECTIVE FOR THIS CONFERENCE IS:

－ to critically review and discuss the state of knowledge in the areas of structural behaviour and the design and construction provisions aimed at protecting structures against blast/shock and impact loadings,

－ to identify problems for which the current state of knowledge and the design and construction provisions are insufficient,

－ to recommend appropriate R&D activities aimed at correcting this situation,

－ to enhance on going and to enable new multi-national collaborative activities.
