Resumen de Viewpoint: Teaching 'reuse' principles at university
Many practising structural engineers already work on existing buildings or structures, despite this topic not being covered in detail at university. Our response to the climate emergency also means that reusing existing buildings and structures will almost certainlybecome an increasingly important part of what engineers do in the future. In recognition of this, the University of Sheffield set up a 15 credit ºReuse of e_isting structures’ module for final-year 4,ngstudents in September 2022. This articlediscusses our approach and experience of introducing this module.
