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.
