Crespo, Tecnologico de Monterrey Bachelor in Civil Engineering with a Master of Science in Structural Engineering and PhD candidate in Structural Engineering. From April 2011 to July 2017 he served as Senior Researcher of the ”Structural Health Monitoring” group of the Mexican Institute of Transportation, directing and collaborating in monitoring and structural prognosis projects applied to special highway bridges, transportation infrastructure, historical monuments and structural systems. He has developed research projects in the area of structural deterioration of reinforced concrete bridges and in the development of damage
andcomparative analysis.When a green roof and vegetative weight are added to the structure of a roof, it can consequentlyincrease the structural material needed for a project. This is especially true for green roofs withplants that need deeper soil and more water than other plant types. This additional structure willincrease the material needed to construct the building and affect the carbon footprint of thebuilding, specifically the embodied carbon. Embodied carbon is derived from the construction ofthe building, transportation and manufacturing of materials, and the installation of products inthe building. It is a calculated value that is used to understand the total carbon emission outputthat it takes to make a new construction happen. It is

required forstudents across all years of the undergraduate AE program, and students were only required toenroll in the AE Seminar course for a minimum of 6 semesters during the undergraduate AEprogram. Through its first two years of implementation, the course invited practicingprofessionals to present unique projects in building design that excited students about their futurecareers. Since then, the AE Seminar course has also served as a gathering place to address theundergraduate AE student body with important announcements, reminders, and opportunities.Often, instructors also recognize recipients of student and design competition awards to helpfoster a student culture of achievement, excellence, and celebration of others.

student’s own design process and solutions. 3. Merely manipulating or altering others’ images through digital or other processes does not in itself constitute legitimate appropriation, and may qualify as copyright violation. 4. Attribution of uses of others’ creative work is essential, and can be handled in a number of ways: – In presentations summarizing research or precedent analysis, any representation of source projects should be accompanied by identifying information (building, location, designers, date). Students should also be aware that rights to photographic imagery are also often held by photographers independently of the source project’s designers. – In cases in which
