Finite-element analysis involves inherent approximations and numerical errors. In addition to these, the increasing size of structural models and the use of automated workflows for creating them can lead to hidden user errors in these models. In order for an engineer to have confidence in the analysis results, it is necessary to be aware of how these errors manifest themselves in models, what impact they have on analysis results and, most importantly, how they can be detected. We present novel numerical techniques that the analyst can use to “debug” their models and verify the accuracy of their analysis results. These techniques have been implemented in software and have been successfully used by practising engineers working on real-life projects.

This paper describes the result of a travel scholarship undertaken in 2013 and generously funded by the Institution of Structural Engineers’ Educational Trust Pai Lin Li Travel Award. The principles of form active design can facilitate architecturally interesting, structurally optimised, materially efficient construction. The paper sets out to illustrate 1) how the concrete construction industry may be positively influenced by recent advances in flexible formwork technology, towards an aim of low carbon construction and 2) how the prestressed brickwork and construction techniques of Eladio Dieste might be utilised to influence the future direction of form active construction across the world. Links between these two objectives are made, before conclusions and ideas for future work are presented. Covering European and South American construction the travel award provided a unique perspective on the political, social, economic and technical demands of sustainable and materially efficient construction. Relationships between these complex demands will be considered to demonstrate the important role that Structural Engineers can have in facilitating sustainable construction through their choices of form and material.
