Civil Structures and Infrastructure Systems

Capture the future of built environments with Civil Structures and Infrastructure Systems by Cao Wang — a compelling, up-to-date guide that speaks directly to engineers, planners, and decision-makers shaping cities and regions worldwide.

This authoritative volume breaks down complex structural concepts into clear, actionable insights. It explores the design and analysis of bridges, buildings, highways, tunnels, and utility networks while emphasizing infrastructure resilience, sustainability, and lifecycle performance. Readers will find practical explanations of modern computational methods, load and failure mechanisms, and interdisciplinary approaches that connect structural engineering with urban planning and asset management.

Ideal for practicing structural engineers, graduate students, and infrastructure managers, this book bridges theory and practice. Case-driven examples illustrate real-world problem solving across seismic, wind, and climate-related challenges, and discussions of maintenance, retrofitting, and risk-informed decision making make it a functional resource for long-term project delivery. Whether you’re working on metropolitan transportation systems, coastal defenses, or regional energy networks, the insights support code-aware, performance-focused design in contexts across North America, Europe, Asia, and beyond.

Readable yet rigorous, the text equips you to improve safety, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability on projects of any scale. Add Civil Structures and Infrastructure Systems by Cao Wang to your professional library today — an essential reference for anyone committed to building smarter, stronger infrastructure for communities everywhere.
