Sustainability shall be integrated in the structural design from the early conception of the design, focusing on the impact on carbon footprint. A holistic approach to sustainability and its influence on structural evaluation is key to identify the main factors impacting on carbon footprint. Emphasizing the importance of considering sustainability early in the design process, it connects sustainability with the structure's conception. The case study of the HS2 project's Victoria Road Crossover Box is presented. Initially a standard rectangular box, the final structure evolved into a secant multi-shaft design with 5 bubbles, akin to a Caterpillar's shape. The shift challenged the traditional approach, enhancing efficiency, sustainability and structural behaviour. The impact of the structural efficiency into the sustainability approach is discussed on this paper and relevant conclusion are stated on the key design factors governing the sustainability approach. |
