In this episode, we explore the future of structural engineering and what it will take to continue pushing the profession forward. We discuss why innovation can be difficult in a risk-averse industry, how performance-based design is changing the way engineers approach complex structures, and whether our reliance on codes and software is beginning to replace first-principles thinking.
We also dive into the growing role of AI in structural engineering—where it could accelerate design and innovation, where it could create new risks, and what should always remain the responsibility of the engineer. Finally, we discuss the curiosity, judgment, and problem-solving skills that will define exceptional structural engineers over the next 50 years.
