Amphibious architecture: A biomimetic design approach to flood resilience (2024)
Journal Article

Amphibious buildings use the buoyancy principle in the design of their foundation systems to mitigate flood impact. In some cases, amphibious buildings are fitted with mechanical systems that further aid the buoyancy element to temporarily raise the...

Public perceptions of rainwater harvesting (RWH): Comparing users and non-users of RWH systems (2023)
Journal Article

The UK’s abundant municipal water supply has resulted in slow progress with the uptake of rainwater harvesting (RWH) systems within the home. Research has indicated that exploring public preferences for domestic RWH are necessary for increasing deman...

Public preference of flood-resilient housing technologies in Nigeria: A case study of Kogi State (2023)
Journal Article

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore flood-prone area residents' preferences of flood-resilient housing technologies (HTs), to understand the factors influencing their choices. Flood-resilient HTs can reduce damage and disruption at a hou... Read More about Public preference of flood-resilient housing technologies in Nigeria: A case study of Kogi State.

Lifestyle and language barriers influence community engagement with green infrastructure (2023)
Journal Article

Few studies have focused on value structures, experiences, and cultural diversity as it relates to bioswale planning and implementation.

Housing affordability in the South West of England (2023)
Report

The South West faces acute problems of housing affordability. The region is conspicuously less affordable than England as a whole, and the North and Midlands in particular. These inter-regional disparities are becoming progressively more pronounced.... Read More about Housing affordability in the South West of England.

Prioritising critical attributes for the management of materials procurement and construction waste (2023)
Journal Article

Construction and demolition waste constitutes the largest municipal solid waste (MSW) globally with environmental concerns. However, waste management is not considered a priority objective in construction compared to time and cost. Therefore, constru...
