Diana Gonzalez Shares Structural Engineering Embodied Carbon Research

In 2021, we signed the SE2050 Commitment, complementing our Architecture 2030 Challenge Commitment and Materials Pledge in the quest for a more sustainable, climate-conscious built environment. Since then, we’ve completed Life Cycle Assessments and tracked embodied carbon reduction strategies across several projects. Join Diana Gonzalez, associate and structural designer, at USGBC Arizona’s Sustainability Summit for a rapid-fire share on the tools used, lessons learned, and the results across a variety of project scales, building types, and structural systems.

During this session, you’ll also get a sneak peek into our “Getting to Zero Energy” dashboard to see how, as a large integrated design firm working across numerous market sectors and geographies, tracking embodied carbon results feed into our broader commitments and a more sustainable future.

Not in Arizona? Join Hunter Wheeler, associate and structural designer, to come along on the journey at USGBC Colorado’s Fall Summit on September 8^th.
