  • Resumen
    • In 2020, the IStructE Climate Emergency Task Group surveyed the organisation’s members1 to establish what guidance would be most useful when aiming to reduce embodied energy in projects. Most requested was advice on the reuse of existing buildings, and this article is one of a series addressing this topic (see the IStructE Climate emergency webpage2 for further articles).

      To reduce embodied energy in new building projects, there will be an increasing focus on the reuse of 20th century building structures whose development is not aќ ected by historic signifi cance. This article is intended to assist engineers who may be working on this sort of project for the fi rst time.

      There is a focus on UK-centric sources of information, but the search principles apply regardless of location.
