Paul Kassabian discusses the evolving role of the structural engineer who must work with the architect to design safe and aesthetically pleasing buildings. In this lecture, he provides case studies to demonstrate the design process, as well as the assembly and construction methods used to erect the final product. Using eclectic examples, including a recently built modular home and a video tower, he describes how engineers and architects must add value to the design process in order to remain relevant in this hyper-competitive world.
