Jeddah Tower has reached 100 floors and is on track to exceed 1,000 meters, becoming the tallest building ever constructed and the first to reach a full kilometer.
Oriole Park at Camden Yards has been reimagined for today’s fans without losing what made it iconic. Behind the scenes, structural upgrades made it possible to install a larger video board and new premium spaces—balancing modern performance demands with the constraints of an existing stadium.
A new UK standard is redefining what “net zero carbon building” actually means—shifting the focus from design intent to verified, in-use performance. Here’s what it is, why it matters, and how to apply it.
Engineering decarbonization doesn’t stop at the building envelope. Discover how Thornton Tomasetti and Crozier Fine Arts are applying systems engineering and carbon modeling to reduce operational emissions across the global fine art supply chain.
The article highlights the project’s role as a new civic hub and its use of mass timber, which supports both sustainability goals and a warm, community-oriented interior environment.
After the 2025 Eaton Fire in California, many foundations remained standing but were structurally compromised. This forensic case study explains how wildfire heat can affect concrete and CMU systems.
As EVs, BESS and hydrogen systems move into everyday buildings, energy storage risks are evolving. Performance-based design helps quantify hazards and engineer controls that reflect real-world conditions.
AI is rapidly changing how structural engineers design, coordinate, and deliver projects. In Modern Steel Construction, Thornton Tomasetti CTO Robert Otani explains how automation and interoperability are replacing legacy tools with faster, more connected workflows.
