Paperback. Condition: New. 'Sustainable design' asks; How we can design while aiming to do no harm? Unfortunately, when we don't reach that aim, we end up doing harm. 'Regenerative design' asks a different question; How can we design in a way that increases biodiversity, reduces carbon and leads to flourishing communities? In short how can we design so that people (and the ecosystems that support them) thrive. In this book the authors explore how, as structural engineers, we can bring about change. Using creative metaphors and case studies they:* Explain how engineers can change their practice now - to create a regenerative future* Explore the different levels of change - from individual projects to the culture of our industry* Illustrate how we can learn from living systems* Show how, by considering not just our site but the whole supply and waste chain, we can reimagine our impact - both positive and negativeThe book is a creative call for radical change; encouraging engineers, and anyone else involved in the built environment, to think and design differently - to do more good.

Paperback. Condition: New. The world is changing, fast. In this new thought leadership title, the authors try to answer the question "What is the future of structural design?"Central to their response is an examination of the role of uncertainty in the design process. This book is a "What if?" rather than a "How to" - founded in the theory of reliability and risk-based design.Specifically, the book explores:Why we should be confident in designing to the codes, and not to more than the codesEmergent materials in response to regenerative designDesign considerations for the reuse of existing buildings as we transition to a circular economyThe ethical basis for this approachWhat the future of design might look likeThe book includes a number of conceptual case studies that explore what the work of an engineer might look like in the future. Above all else it challenges structural designers to reimagine their work in the face of new global challenges and provides an optimistic way forward.
