The Liaison Committee of six of the largest international associations active in the civil engineering sector and representing experts from more than 150 nation-states has launched the Joint Committee on the GLOBE Consensus (JCGC). The purpose is to lead the global green transition of civil and structural engineering and building materials sciences, the backbone of the built environment and most of the societal infrastructure systems.

The fib Technical Council was held online and in-person in Lausanne in September 2021. On this occasion, new working groups and chairs/conveners were approved.

We are delighted to announce that the fib’s official statement on sustainability is available online.
