Foreword

Starting form year 1991, faculty of Civil Engineering at Vilnius Gediminas Technical University (VGTU) together with national and international partners already has organized ten highly suc-cessful international scientific conferences to discuss up-to-date problems in civil engineering. This conference is aimed at dis-cussing of both industrial and academic research which has been recently carried out on analysis and design of modern structures, development of innovative building materials, maintenance of structures, building technology and management, etc. The 10th international conference “Modern Building Materials, Structures and Techniques”, held on 19–21 of May, 2010, was attended by nearly 400 scientists from more than 20 countries. The peer-re-viewed selected papers of the last three conferences were pub-lished and sent to the ISI proceedings database for abstracting.

We intend to organize 11th international conference “Modern Building Materials, Structures and Techniques” in Vilnius, Lithu-ania, on 16–17 of May, 2013. The conference will provide an op-portunity for scientists, engineers, managers and professionals from around the world to share the latest achievements and to highlight the problems. Such a conference will be an excellent opportunity to meet colleagues, to exchange knowledge and experience, and to extend your list of contacts.
