What is SE 2050?
The Structural Engineers 2050 Challenge (SE 2050) is an initiative designed to educate, engage and measure progress toward net-zero buildings by 2050. The challenge supports the target set by the Paris Climate Agreement to limit the increase of global temperatures well below 2 degrees C. According to the University of Washington’s Carbon Leadership Forum, “the SE 2050 initiative challenges structural engineers to meet embodied carbon benchmarks and increasingly higher reduction targets in a ‘race towards the most efficient building’ as we approach the year 2050.”
The reduction of embodied carbon in structural elements is one of the key strategies towards contributing to a resilient urban built environment.
