Dear Colleagues,

The 13th International Conference on Structural Safety and Reliability (ICOSSAR2021) sponsored by the International Association for Structural Safety and Reliability (IASSAR) will be held on June 21-25, 2021 in Shanghai, China.

For the past five decades, the International Conference on Structural Safety and Reliability (ICOSSAR) organized by the International Association for Structural Safety and Reliability (IASSAR) has provided a valuable opportunity to share the knowledge, experience and information on structural safety, reliability and risk-informed decision-making among scientists and engineers. The first ICOSSAR was held in 1969 in Washington, D.C., USA. Since 1977, it has been successfully held every four years at several venues in Europe, USA and Japan, and has attracted many engineers in academia, industry, government and private practice. Previous ICOSSARs have been held in Washington, D.C., USA (1969), Munich, Germany (1977), Trondheim, Norway (1981), Kobe, Japan (1985), San Francisco, USA (1989), Innsbruck, Austria (1993), Kyoto, Japan (1997), Newport Beach, USA (2001), Rome, Italy (2005), Osaka, Japan (2009), New York, USA (2013) and Vienna, Austria (2017). ICOSSAR2021 aims to bring together engineers, scientists, educators, researchers and practitioners to create a better understanding and management of safety, risk and reliability of structures and systems in various fields. More information can be found at http://www.icossar2021.org/
