Overview
As bridges spans get longer, lighter and more slender, aerodynamic loads become a matter of serious study. This volume of proceedings reflect the co-operation between civil and mechanical engineering and meteorology in this field.

Booknews
Reproduced authors' copies of 22 papers from an international symposium organized by the Danish Maritime Institute, and held in Copenhagen, February 1992. Contributors representing civil and mechanical engineering, meteorology, and wind engineering address aerodynamic problems to be faced as bridges continue to be built with longer spans and new lightweight materials. The sections cover an overview, wind, aerodynamic aspects, tools, application and design, the Great Belt (where a link between Copenhagen and the continent is under construction) and the future.
