It has been eight years since the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) published the second edition of the Body of Knowledge (BOK2) report, and in October 2016 ASCE launched the Body of Knowledge 3 Task Committee (BOK3TC). ASCE charged the BOK3TC to critically reviewing published literature regarding the future of engineering, other disciplines and civil engineering practice; proactively soliciting constituent input; evaluating the ASCE BOK2; determining if a third edition of the Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge report is warranted now; and if warranted, developing the BOK3 report. The intent of this paper is to update the civil engineering community on the progress of the BOK3TC with the specific goal of answering the question of whether a third edition of the BOK is needed at this point in time.
