Putting the net-zero hierarchy into practice: Specify low-impact

Emily Halliwell concludes this series of notes signposting key resources at each level in the IStructE hierarchy of net-zero design by looking at how to 'minimise waste'.

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.
