Sustainable Structural Design

Webinars

As the effects of climate change become ever more visible, sustainable structural design comes to increasing importance. This leads to multiple initiatives in practice and academia. At the current rate, the changes in sustainable structural design practice outpace the publication of research outcomes. In recognition of this, the Sustainable Structural Design webinar series provides a platform to share and discuss new developments in both practice and academia. By inviting leading scientists and professionals from a wide range of fields, the webinars aim for a holistic perspective on the current sustainability discourse. They include theory and challenges, yet mainly focus on solutions and recent innovations. Topics include circularity, sustainable materials, environmental assessment, energy, renovation and sustainable design approaches.
