The workshop takes place at Gent ICC, preceding the IABSE Congress Ghent 2025. Not only the origins, causes and consequences of structural failures are addressed at the workshop. Also new insights, evolving from evaluations and research, are shared in order to improve methods, collaboration and active awareness on safety of structures in the phases of design, construction and maintenance.
