Mario A. Chiorino (scientific coordinator) is Professor of Structural Mechanics at the Politecnico di
Torino and Member of Turin Academy of Sciences. He has been associated with CEB activities
since 1968 as member of CEB Advisory Committee, of the Committee for CEB-FIP Model Code
1990 and various Technical Committees, and as editor of CEB Design Manual "Structural Effects
of Time-dependent Behaviour of Concrete". He is member of several RILEM and fib Technical
Committees and of ACI Committee 209 "Creep and Shrinkage in Concrete". He has published
many papers on structural mechanics and concrete viscoelasticity and has been designer of
large reinforced and prestressed concrete structures: tall chimneys, bridges, nuclear plants, etc.

Paolo Napoli is Professor of Structural Design at the Politecnico di Torino. He has been
associated with CEB activities since 1980 as member of the editorial board of the Manual
"Structural Effects of Time-dependent Behaviour of Concrete" and of several Technical
Committees. Inside the European Committee of Normalization (CEN) he is Convenor of Task
groups " Precast Bridge elements" and " Precast ribbed floor elements". He has published many
papers on structural mechanics and concrete viscoelasticity and is a designer of large
reinforced and prestressed concrete structures like bridges and sport infrastructures. He has
also a large experience in redesign of concrete structures.

Mario Sassone (program coordinator and responsible for the website) holds a PhD in structural
engineering and is research assistant at the Politecnico di Torino. His doctoral thesis concerned
interface problems in steel-concrete composite structures. He is presently working on reliability
evaluation of reinforced concrete structures, with particular attention to long term creep effects on
the serviceability limit state. He is corresponding member of ACI Committee 209 “Creep and
Shrinkage in Concrete".

Davide Bigaran is a Ph. D. student at the Politecnico di
Torino. His doctoral thesis concerns reliability
evaluation of long-span reinforced concrete structures.
The aim of the research is to find out the effects of
uncertainties in geometric parameters, material properties
and mechanical models. contact
