5th New York City Bridge Conference
The Bridge Engineering Association organized the 5th New York City Bridge Conference along with a distinguished group of renowned bridge engineers from all over the world. Throughout August 17-18, 2009, bridge operators, designers and academics from many countries presented state-of-the-art material, assuring an authoritative account on the developments in the field of bridge engineering. The conference proceedings are published in “Safety and Reliability of Bridge Structures”. Select papers are published in a special issue of the Journal of Bridge Structures, Vol. 5, Issues 2 & 3; June-September 2009. The conference program highlights the Bridge Engineering Association’s commitment to quality and to the promotion of the state-of-the-art in bridge engineering. We recognize that the exchange of knowledge and expertise between bridge engineers from different countries is essential. A special note of gratitude is due to the authors and reviewers of the papers. The quality of the conference proceedings is a result of the sacrifice of time and effort, dedication and collective wisdom of this body of technical experts in authoring and reviewing the papers. I acknowledge with appreciation their contributions. Finally, I would like to thank the conference sponsors and attendees. I look forward to your participation in future Bridge Engineering Association events. The 6th New York City Bridge Conference will be held on July 25-26, 2011 at the Marriott New York East Side.
