Designing for Resilience and Sustainability
Construction is a significant part of the global economy, and is at the same time, a major source of GHG emissions. How can we improve disaster resiliency in existing and new building stocks while limiting emissions? How do you balance competing goals between resiliency and sustainability? KR’s multi-disciplinary team of climate scientists and engineering experts can address these questions through our unique capability to streamline high-resolution hazard and risk modelling with detailed engineering design and life-cycle analysis of emissions and embodied carbon. By developing rigorous analytics at the asset component level, we offer full guidance on optimizing design from resilience and sustainability perspectives, and enable builders and developers to create defensible proposals and rational business cases for their projects.
