Abstract :
The following key elements: Expert Judgment, Wireless-Sensor Networks and promoting Internet work-shopping will be demonstrated in the two modules e-Experience and e-Experiment that can be integrated into the created collaborative e-Learning environment. They will be able to better act to improving safety and reducing potential malfunctioning during construction and operation of the civil infrastructure. The e-Learning environment will provide location independent knowledge sharing and exploration, and allow for efficient real time data processing. One can expect from this risk management tool that scientists, engineers and students gain valuable experience and expertise in the wake to globalisation with regard to IT technologies.
