Abstract
Picture
​How we construct structures for a growing world population in the next few decades will have a large effect on the outcome of the climate crisis.  At Skidmore, Owings, & Merrill we have been pioneering efficient steel structures for many decades.  The present talk will summarize past experiences and recent efforts to combine computational design with digital fabrication procedures to realize efficient steel structures for the future.
