These lifecycle scenarios can likely undergo unforeseen accidental situations. The consequences of some of them in terms of progressive collapse can be avoided just by a suitable conception of the structural system. If this is not the case, the structural components will be locally over-designed to avoid that the consequences of damages to structures be disproportionate to the causes of the damages. Active, semi-active and hybrid structural control grew in the last two decades showing their ability to be designed and installed in civil engineering applications. Nevertheless, a strong safety requirement, demanding to provide the safety target even during the failure of non-passive components making a control policy uneconomical. This suggests to investigate different areas of exploitation, which can mainly be grouped in two classes: applications during the construction stage and implementation toward the achievement of a better structural robustness. The latter aspect is discussed in this contribution with reference to two types of structures: suspension or cable-stayed bridges and monumental buildings. 000009974 540__ $$aText je chráněný podle autorského zákona č. 121/2000 Sb. 000009974 653__ $$aStructural robustness, Progressive failure, Structural control, Suspension bridges, Monumental buildings 000009974 7112_ $$a14th World Conference on Earthquake Engineering$$cBejing (CN)$$d2008-10-12 / 2008-10-17$$gWCEE15 000009974 720__ $$aFaravelli, Lucia$$iCasciati, Sara 000009974 8560_ $$ffischerc@itam.cas.cz 000009974 8564_ $$s305709$$uhttps://invenio.itam.cas.cz/record/9974/files/S25-010.pdf$$yOriginal version of the author's contribution as presented on CD, Paper ID: S25-010. 000009974 962__ $$r9324 000009974 980__ $$aPAPER
