Collaborative Reporting for Safer Structures US
CROSS-US was established by SEI in 2019, as a new region in a growing international network of CROSS regions. CROSS-US helps professionals to make structures safer by publishing safety information based on reports that we receive and information in the public domain. Our secure and confidential safety reporting system allows professionals to share their experiences to help others. Learn more and sign up for the CROSS-US Newsletter.
SE 2050
In December 2019 the SEI Board of Governors endorsed the vision of the SE 2050 Challenge by stating:
"We, the Structural Engineering Institute (SEI) of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), support the vision and ambition of the SE 2050 Challenge. We, as a leading structural engineering organization in the United States, recognize the need for coordinated action across our profession to achieve the globally stated goal of net-zero carbon by 2050."
The mission of the SE 2050 Commitment is to support the SE 2050 Challenge and transform the practice of structural engineering in a way that is holistic, firm-wide, project-based, and data-driven. By prioritizing the reduction of embodied carbon, through the use of less and/or less impactful structural materials, participating firms can more easily work toward net-zero embodied carbon structural systems by 2050.
