This document includes material assembled as a completion report of the Corps of Engineers Structural Engineering Conference (CESEC 91) held in St. Johns County, FL, 8-12 July 1992. Under this cover are the agenda of the conference, abstracts and papers presented, a description of the exhibits, posters and demonstrations displayed, a list of attendees, and an evaluation of the conference by the participants. The 5-day conference included the presentation of 112 papers, 32 visual displays, six training sessions and two leadership forums on the state-of-the-practice in structural engineering within the Corps of Engineers and other agencies in attendance. The presentations were given as formal talks or informally through visual displays and demonstrations. A challenge workshop was conducted one afternoon where a select group of structural engineers were presented with two emergency situations which could likely occur. These teams of engineers were asked to provide an immediate assessment of the situations and both a short-term and long-term solution to the problems. Leadership forums were conducted for chiefs of structural design from each office for both military and civil works areas.

The papers in this volume were presented by representatives from each U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Division in the continental United States. The papers give an overall view of each Division, its area, responsibilities, and major problems. Geographical and environmental factors influencing the work are covered and the fraction of the work done by contractors and consultants is discussed. A major portion of many of the papers concerns the use of computers in the design and analysis of structures. Projects, types of computer service used, cost and time savings, and design improvements are described. Also discussed are the means the Division uses for disseminating program information, starting new developments, publicizing improvements, discarding old programs, and which areas of structural design need more computer programs. Views on encouraging and controlling the development of computer programs for structural engineering are expressed and procedures and recommendations for both Division and Corps level operations are suggested. Problems experienced in program and equipment use are discussed. Many papers are accompanied by an appendix containing program abstracts. (Author).
