27 June 2022 – Engineering in Extreme Environments

Engineers are often called upon to deliver projects in challenging environments, from regions affected by conflict or extreme weather to remote communities around the world. This year’s Joint Professional Meeting between the Institution of Royal Engineers and the Institution of Civil Engineers considered engineering in extreme environments and shared lessons from challenging projects around the world.

The lecture explored how project teams can adapt the way they design and plan to ensure they meet the required outcomes.

Join us to draw out lessons that can be applied to your civil engineering projects, whatever the environment and challenge, and to explore how you approach design and construction under constrained conditions.

The lecture included a series of insightful case studies ranging from the Falkland Islands, South Sudan, and Antarctica. There was also an opportunity to pose your questions to the panel. This was a hybrid event, which was streamed live and included an in-person audience, offering additional networking opportunities for attendees.
