The six-day workshop and training course on "Seismic and Wind-Resistant Design of Building Structures," followed by the "International Advance School in Wind Engineering (IAS 7)," was held from December 3–8, 2010, at the CSIR Science Centre, New Delhi, India. Jointly organized by CBRI Roorkee and ISWE, with support from the Global Centre of Excellence at Tokyo Polytechnic University, Japan, the event brought together global experts, professionals, and researchers to discuss advancements in structural resilience. The workshop (December 3–5) featured eminent speakers like Prof. Michael Kasperski (Germany) and Prof. S.K. Bhattacharyya (India), focusing on seismic and wind engineering fundamentals, structural health monitoring, and codal provisions. Topics included bluff body aerodynamics, wind loading on buildings, and seismic codes of India. The advanced school (December 6–8) hosted international experts, including Prof. Yukio Tamura (Japan), Prof. Youlin Xu (Hong Kong), and Prof. Chris Letchford (Australia). Sessions covered cutting-edge research in aerodynamic loads, typhoon simulations, windborne debris, and damping in buildings. Participants from academia, government, and industry engaged in lectures, tutorials, and discussions, gaining valuable insights into designing resilient structures. The program concluded with certificates distributed to participants, highlighting the importance of such initiatives in advancing global practices in structural safety and sustainability.
