Use this tool to help you quickly estimate the embodied carbon in your structures.

This guide explains why overdesign is so prevalent, its impact on material consumption and CO₂ emissions, and provides five key actions you can take now, to reduce the carbon your projects produce. 

Learn how to undertake embodied carbon calculations for every project and aspect of structural design. 

Provides students with a comprehensive understanding of the subject, and reinforces the changes that are taking place within the construction industry. 

I know the stereotypes that are often attached to engineers. Everything from being a boffin (some of us are) to being covered in dirt all day, every day in a pair of wellies (some of us are). 

But when it comes to our own engineering consultancy practice these old-fashioned linear perceptions of the industry have largely fallen away. I also see a widespread change in the engineering world with a lot more diversity.

The best-selling introductory mathematics text for students on science and engineering degree and pre-degree courses. 

An authoritative, well-established, comprehensive, practical, and highly illustrated guide to construction practice.

An essential set of embodied carbon calculation principles for structural engineers looking to change the way they practice, in order to achieve net zero carbon by 2050.

This new guidance is an essential read for any built environment professional developing new (or reusing existing) structures today. Across four principal sections it explains why the adoption of circular economy principles is critical.

The Young researchers conference returned for its 25th year to bring together structural engineering practitioners, academics and PhD students in a showcase of outstanding research projects.

Niamh McCloskey talks to us about some of the people and experiences that have shaped her career. She shares her thoughts on bias and inclusivity within our profession.
