In the second part the consequences of climate change on building and civil engineering structures are treated. The emphasis is laid on the eect of tempera

In addition people experience in everyday life smaller or bigger signs of this pr
6、ocess. Nevertheless one can meet skeptic opinions, but the number of such opinions are decreasing due to the obvious evidences. The problem of climate change is very wide and extremely complex, involving every elds of science, and even every side of the life on the globe. It should be pointed out, t
7、hat this problems in structural engineering are important, but involving only a small part of the general problem. According to the opinion of the author the adaptation and mitigation procedures of the climate change should be applied to the activity of each profession. To draw the consequences, and
8、 propose the necessary steps in our profession, in structural engineering is the goal of this paper. 2 The climate changeThe global warming due to the increased emission of greenhouse gases is investigated by many of the meteorological institutions, offices, bureaus and stations. Great many of repor

The last one titled Climate Change 2007 Climate Change Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability”(IPCC 2007).This

Responding to the climate change the Report stressed the necessity of adaptation and mitigation measures.The above described general situation makes necessary the adaptation and mitigation measures in structural engineering too. For specifying our task we should know the perspec

In the following some regional aspects, e.g. average temperature increase (Fig. 1) and average precipitation changes (Fig. 2) are hown in the Carpathian Region elaborated by the Meteorology Chair of the Etvs University, Budapest (B

The data was drawn from research results of 18 meteorological institution using regional climate change models.Next years some similar diagrams will be el
