SEI Journal

Structural Engineering International (SEI) journal presents a unique blend of short profiles on recent structures and longer in-depth articles to practicing structural engineers in the form of reports of high scientific and technical standard. Articles are written by practicing engineers and academia from around the world and are reviewed by the IABSE SEI Editorial Board, with collaboration of over 250 experts and over 20 Correspondents. Members and subscribers receive the print version and can download all issues back to 1991.
