Book excerpt: "The 'International Conference on Advanced Composite Materials in Bridges and Structures', ACMBS, is now a well-established forum for the exchange of knowledge and experience in the use of advanced composites in structures. The present conference is the fifth in a series of highly successful symposia. Following the initial conference in Sherbrooke in 1992, other ACMBS conference[s] took place in Montréal (1996), Ottawa (2000) and Calgary (2004). The ACMBS series of conferences is organized under the auspices of the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering." ; "Since ACMBS-1 in 1992, there has been tremendous advancement in the development and applications of fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites in structures throughout the world." ; "The proceedings of the ACMBS-V Conference include over 100 technical papers reporting original and high quality research and innovative applications. They provide a representative picture of the current state of knowledge on the use of FRP [composites] in structural and civil engineering applications."--Foreword.
