What does it take to have the confidence to implement a new idea, process, or method—to innovate—in the field of structural engineering? This question is examined by the authors using their experience as practicing engineers in a firm that has always prided itself on trying to bring innovation to all it does. Examples from recent projects implemented in China are cited.
