Sustainable Construction with Home Grown Timber - An approach to optimise structural performance of Cross-laminated timber (CLT) by effective use of the UK timber
Cross-laminated timber is an engineered wood product, consisted of solid timber boards (lamella) stacked perpendicularly and glued in layers resulting in massive structural floor and wall panels. Read more
Vibrational Performance of timber floor - an Investigation of influence of construction parameters
Traditional timber floor systems are usually composed of a series of parallel timber joists (eg. solid and engineered I-joist or Laminated-Veneer-Lumber) which support wood-based sheathing. Read more
Composite timber/FRP elements: studying the combination of laminated timber and FRP
Existing research including pilot studies at Kingston University on solid timber and laminated timber (glulam) members strengthened with fibre reinforced polymers (FRPs) shows that there is a great potential for the future development of this field. Read more
Determining the optimal mix of forestry systems and reserves under differing wildfire regimes for improving plant conservation
How to meet human needs for timber while limiting harm to biodiversity is an urgent scientific goal. The aim of this Australian Research Council funded PhD project are. Read more
Electrical ringbarking of wilding trees
New Zealand, in common with many other countries, has a problem with invasive plant species which can colonize areas of the land, displacing endemic and indigenous flora and destroying the habitat of endemic and indigenous fauna. Read more
PhD Degrees in the Department of Architecture & Civil Engineering
Our interdisciplinary approach to research, encompassing the fields of Architectural History and Theory, Architectural and Structural Conservation, Lightweight Structures, Hydraulics and Earthquake Engineering and Dynamics and Climate Resilience of the Built Environment. Read more
Reduction of environmental footprint of wood buildings through performance-based design (PBD)
The adoption of a performance-based design methodology is being considered for a future edition of the National Building Code of Canada. Read more
Achieving Material Efficiency in Modern Floor Design based on Human Acceptability
Background. The production of construction materials is a significant source of carbon emissions, and the way of achieving low carbon in construction is to enhance material efficiency. Read more
Environmental Impact of Construction on Peatlands
Reducing greenhouse gasses (GHG) emissions is one of the main goals of the 1997 Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement (signed in 2015 during COP21) which seeks to limit the global raise in temperature to 1.5 °C. Read more
