Engineering affects everyone's lives. From roads and railways we travel on, to the water we drink and the electricity we use, engineers are the providers. But the job is getting harder; resources are getting scarce; cities are filling up. Roads are congested. Railways are at capacity. New and innovative solutions are going to be needed.
The Engineers Collective is the podcast for those who are curious about the future and how engineers will keep our towns and cities running.
In each episode members of the New Civil Engineer editorial team are joined by industry guests to discuss key topics impacting our industry.
The Engineers Collective is sponsored by Bentley Systems. Around the world, engineers and architects, constructors and owner-operators are using Bentley’s software solutions to accelerate project delivery and improve asset performance for the infrastructure that sustains our economy and our environment. Together, we are advancing infrastructure. Find out more, at www.bentley.com.

The Regenerative Structural Engineer and Infrastructure related pledges in the UK General Election
In the new episode the we meet the authors of new book The Regenerative Structural Engineer, Oliver Broadbent and James Norman. The book, published by the Institution of Structural Engineers, draws on the two authors’ years of experience of civil and structural engineering. Today, Oliver is founder and co-leader of regenerative engineering training Constructivist and James is professor of sustainable design at the University of Bristol.
Their passion for engineering and helping to promote the inherent benevolence of the vocation is clear in our discussion. We talk about the process of writing and designing The Regenerative Structural Engineer then dive into some of its themes including regenerative thinking, the construction site as a system, learning from living systems and transitioning to a future where healing the environment is a natural outcome of design, construction and engineering.
Prior to that, the NCE team discusses the infrastructure related pledges in the manifestos of the major UK political parties as we build towards the General Election.
