Inhaltsangabe

The 45 contributions in this proceedings volume provide information and support for managers to enable them to carry out their duties more efficiently and to recognize those sites with potential hazards. Studies are included on all places where large numbers of people gather, such as railway stations, shopping malls, pop concerts, etc., providing the detailed information to design a safe venue. Attention is given to how the design of the structure would fit with the behavior of the people using it how it would promote their safety. This type of engineering requires knowledge not only of the loads and pressures that can be generated within a crowd, but also of how the design could affect the movement of the crowds how they could be controlled, dealt with, and modeled.
