The Asian-Pacific Symposium on Structural Reliability and its Applications (APSSRA) is held every four years in between ICASP and ICOSSAR. The first APSSRA was held in Tokyo, Japan in November 1995; the second in Taipei, Taiwan in February 1999; the third in Seoul, Korea in August 2004; and the fourth in Hong Kong in June 2008 The fifth APSSRA will be held in 2012 in Singapore under the theme Sustainable civil infrastructures - hazards, risk, uncertainty The Asia-Pacific region is witnessing unprecedented economic growth, concentration of population in mega-cities, and complexity and scale of infrastructural development. This sea change is taking place under looming global threats such as climate change and scarcity of resources. The development of innovative and sustainable solutions to improve life quality, while reducing hazard and risk and protecting both communities and the environment is the foremost challenge to civil engineers in the new millennium. Risk management using structural reliability or other related concepts is integral to the above challenge not merely as a decision tool but also a communication tool to engage non-engineering stakeholders in the public, government, and industry and between disciplines. We seek to encourage technical exchanges on advancing and closing knowledge gaps in risk and uncertainty with emphasis on sustainable development of civil infrastructures and mitigation of natural disasters.
