Presentation / Conference
Ameh, H., Lamond, J., & Badarnah, L. (2022, August). Amphibious architecture: A review of the construction methods adopted in existing designs. Paper presented at SEEDS Conference 2022 (International Conference for Sustainable Ecological Engineering Design for Society), University of the West of England, Bristol and online

Effective flood mitigation strategies at individual property level can be designed to limit damage and facilitate recovery by limiting water entry or enabling entry into occupied spaces in a controlled manner. Ideally these strategies will be robust... Read More about Amphibious architecture: A review of the construction methods adopted in existing designs.

An investigation of flood memory, insurance and property value: The UK regime (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Bhattacharya-Mis, N., & Lamond, J. (2015, July). An investigation of flood memory, insurance and property value: The UK regime. Paper presented at RICS COBRA 2015, Sydney Australia

Availability of insurance cover is considered to be a key issue in saleability and reinstatement of property. With increasing flood risk properties are likely to find it harder to access easy and cheap insurance. Premium levels will increase if there...
