Putting the net-zero hierarchy into practice: Build nothing

Muiris Moynihan summarises available guidance covering the fourth level of the Institution's hierarchy for net-zero design, which encourages engineers to 'build efficiently' by ensuring designs are highly utilised.

Emily Halliwell continues this series of notes signposting key climate resources for IStructE members around each level in the hierarchy of net-zero design by looking at how to 'build clever' to minimise material usage and reduce carbon emissions.

Conor Hayes continues this series of notes signposting key climate resources for IStructE members by looking at the second level in the hierarchy of net-zero design: building less to minimise material usage and reduce carbon emissions.
