Infrastructures are facilities and services that support the functioning of human societies. Examples are utility networks (such as water, wastewater, gas, electricity, and communications), transportation systems (such as airports, railroads, roads, and bridges), public buildings (municipal buildings and hospitals), and social venues (such as sports and entertainment facilities). Capital intensity, network complexity, and criticality of services provided are among the main attributes of infrastructure systems. Infrastructure management is emerging as a top global priority in the 21st century due to a growing stock of aged infrastructure facilities and an increasing demand for infrastructure services resulted from a highly urbanized population. The ebook on "Sustainable Infrastructure Management" aims at publishing original papers on current research and practice in incorporating social, economical and environmental sustainability dimensions in infrastructure management.
