Abstract:

The goal of this paper is to investigate the impact of computer software, computers and technology in general on the design and construction of civil engineering structures and to outline the trends that can be expected in the future. The author presents observations gathered during his design experience as a structural engineer, and from compiling a database of structural engineering software available online at www.bridgeart.net.
