Leading Experts Present Emerging Developments in Multi-Hazard Engineering at AEI-MCEER Symposium
Over 115 structural engineers, architects, faculty researchers, and students convened in New York City for the Symposium on Emerging Developments in Multi-Hazard Engineering. Held September 18, 2007 at the McGraw-Hill Auditorium, the event was jointly organized by the Architectural Engineering Institute (AEI) of ASCE and MCEER. It also received generous sponsorship from the Steel Institute of New York.
The symposium was co-chaired by Dr. Mohammed Ettouney, Principal at Weidlinger Associates, Inc. and Past President of AEI, and Dr. Michel Bruneau, Director of MCEER and Professor at the University at Buffalo. It featured 13 presentations by nationally-recognized researchers and practitioners that highlighted recent advances in the emerging field of multi-hazards engineering. These included perspectives and solutions for protecting infrastructure from specific hazards, as well as the potential to adapt existing design measures for multi-hazard protection of the built environment. Opening presentations focused on an “AEI Strategy for Multi-Hazard Engineering” and “The Four Rs of Resilience in Multi-Hazard Engineering,” a concept developed through MCEER research. An expert panel explored “Identifying the Path(s) Forward for Multi-Hazard Engineering.”
