Abstract: The significance of robustness of engineering structures has been widely accepted among the structural engineering community. Unfortunately, there are no generally accepted Chinese translations for “structural robustness”. The present paper briefly reviewed the progress of structural robustness, and several Chinese translations were discussed.

Key words: structural engineering, structural robustness, hazard mitigation
