Infrastructure | Assessing Risks & Trade-offs

Europe | GLOBAL

Working in Nepal after the 2015 earthquakes, the communities saw the concrete buildings that had survived the earthquakes as the buildings they would feel safe living in, but as an engineer, my perception of the risk was very different. In a different earthquake, many of those would not have been safe either. The buildings we designed had to be structurally sound and also make the community feel safe in them, as they were the ones that had to live in the buildings.
