Introducing the Net Zero Carbon Buildings Standard – a cross-industry approach to decarbonisation

IStructE Technical Director, Patrick Hayes, explains the significance of the forthcoming Net Zero Carbon Buildings Standard and the likely impact it will have on the UK's decarbonisation goals.

This month's report discusses how a design/modelling problem caused an under-designed reinforced concrete slab to be constructed.

Following the publication of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry's final report into the tragedy, the Institution of Structural Engineers will play its part in delivering the change needed to ensure public safety.
