Active Mass Dampers for Next Generation Sustainable Floor Structures

In multi-storey buildings, floors contribute about 60% of their total mass. As much as half of this material is wasted as a result of over-specification in floor structural design to manage risks due to unknown loads and structural behaviour. The main driver in this wasteful over-design is not safety (against collapse) but serviceability, chiefly avoiding excessive floor vibrations in normal […]

Building renovation: where circular economy and climate meet

In the drive to reduce operational carbon emissions from buildings, focus has for a long time been on making buildings more energy efficient, and perhaps inadvertently favoured replacement of old building stock rather than upgrade. In recent years with a much greater focus shifting to embodied carbon of the construction materials, the balance sheet has been re-drawn giving retrofit projects […]
