This is an open access book.As society progresses and the city scale increases, architecture is diversifying and becoming complex, with structures transforming from simple structures into high-rise, long-span and even special and complex structures. Architecture is where people live and work, so its security must be ensured. However, the architectural structure is likely to be destroyed by natural disasters (earthquakes, wind, snow, rain), man-made faults and incidents (explosion, fire, crashes) and accidental events like attacks and man-made sabotage in recent years. Therefore, countries have endeavored to improve architectural security for many years. A large number of anti-seismic issues in the civil engineering construction have turned up, which also gave birth to many new anti-seismic theories, technologies and products. 2023 5th International Conference on Structural Seismic and Civil Engineering Research (ICSSCER 2023) will be held on August 25–27, 2023 in Nanjing, Jiangsu, China. With a display of the latest research outcomes in theoretical research, experimental study and engineering application, this conference creates a platform for scholars, researchers and technical personnel to exchange ideas and further understand each other. We extend a warm welcome to you and expect you to attend this academic feast to promote academic exchanges of relevant issues and advance the development of structural anti-seismic and civil engineering research and application. 2023 8th International Conference on Ecological Building and Green Building Material (EBGBM 2023,http://www.ebgbm.net/) will be conducted as a sub session of ICSSCER 2023. Scholars from home and abroad are welcomed to contribute papers and attend the conference.
