Flexibility in nationally significant infrastructure planning in England: An implementation perspective on an ongoing planning dilemma (2025)
Journal Article

Debates about flexibility in the granting of planning permission have a long history. Increased flexibility is often associated with pro-development planning and reduced control. However, flexibility can help to achieve enhanced planning outcomes and...

Evaluation of four gridded climate products in streamflow and drought simulations in the Kelantan River Basin, Malaysia (2025)
Journal Article

The availability of meteorological stations is generally limited and sparsely dispersed in many regions. Gridded climate products (GCPs) are commonly utilized in hydro-climatic modelling due to their wide spatial and temporal coverage. This study aim... Read More about Evaluation of four gridded climate products in streamflow and drought simulations in the Kelantan River Basin, Malaysia.

Designing a master degree program in building information modeling (BIM) using national professional standards: A case studyin Kazakhstan (2024)
Journal Article

This article presents the design of a master degree program focused on "Building Information Modeling (BIM) Technologies in Architecture, Engineering & Construction (AEC)" in Kazakhstan. The demand for such a program arises from the scarcity of quali...

Build it and they will come? - A case study of a ‘softer landings’ approach in creating a low-carbon community (2024)
Journal Article

This paper explores an emerging low-carbon construction business model through a case study of a low-carbon community supported by a private Small to Medium Enterprise (SME) in Lincolnshire. The study highlights the developer’s extended aftercare and... Read More about Build it and they will come? - A case study of a ‘softer landings’ approach in creating a low-carbon community.

Building a framework for dynamic organisational capabilities in Design for Safety (DfS) for Malaysian construction organisations (2024)
Journal Article

Purpose – Despite the growing construction subject of Design for Safety (DfS) in Malaysia, little effort has been made to understand the construction organisational DfS capability in a dynamic environment. This study aims to propose a framework for d... Read More about Building a framework for dynamic organisational capabilities in Design for Safety (DfS) for Malaysian construction organisations.

Schmidt-hammer exposure-age dating of talus slopes in upper Jostedalen, southern Norway: Interpreting the age and development of diachronous surfaces (2024)
Journal Article

Schmidt-hammer exposure-age dating (SHD) was used to evaluate the surface age, dynamics and evolution of eight talus (scree) slopes located between ~520 and ~1010 m a.s.l. in the upper Jostedalen area of southern Norway. Statistically significant dif...
