Durability is no longer just a technical detail—it’s central to how we build for the future.
In this episode, Estelle sits down with Jonathan Dyson and Summer Wang to explore what durability by design really means in today’s construction landscape. As the industry shifts toward more sustainable and resilient infrastructure, the focus is moving beyond upfront cost to long-term performance and lifecycle value.
From ultra high performance concrete to recycled materials and emerging technologies, this conversation unpacks how durability is evolving, and why it’s becoming critical to reducing maintenance, improving outcomes, and delivering infrastructure that lasts.
Together, they share insights into where the industry is heading, the challenges in adopting new approaches, and what it will take to truly build for the long term.
