  • Living Roofs in Integrated Urban Water Systems
    Living Roofs in Integrated Urban Water Systems With the infrastructure to manage stormwater threats in cities becoming increas- ingly expensive to build or repair, the design community needs to look at alterna- tive approaches. Living roofs present an opportunity to complement ground- level stormwater control measures, contributing to a holistic, integrated urban water management system. This book offers tools to plan and design living roofs, in the context of effec- tively mitigating stormwater. Quantitative tools for engineering calculations and qualitative discussion of potential influences and interactions of the design team and assembly elements are addressed. Daniel Roehr is an Associate Professor at the University of British Columbia School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture in Vancouver, Canada, a reg- istered landscape architect in Vancouver and Berlin and a horticulturalist. Roehr has designed and researched living roofs for over 20 years with his most signifi- cant work being the ground- breaking water sensitive living roof design of the DaimlerChrysler project Potsdamer Platz in Berlin, Germany. Elizabeth Fassman- Beck is an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil, Environmental, and Ocean Engineering at Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, New Jersey, USA. She has worked extensively with regulatory agencies to develop evidence- based technical and practical design criteria for stormwater control measures. Her former research team in Auckland, New Zealand devel- oped the first living roof design guidance

  • Recent Advances in Engineered Microbial Technologies for the Construction Industry
    This is a peer-reviewed, accepted author manuscript of the following article: Salifu, E., Gutteridge, F., & Witte, K. (2021). Recent advances in engineered microbial technologies for the construction industry. Paper presented at Young Researchers' Forum V , Glasgow, United Kingdom. Young Researchers’ Forum V Innovation in Construction Materials 22 April 2021 Paper Number XX Recent Advances in Engineered Microbial Technologies for the Construction Industry E. Salifu1, F. Gutteridge2, K. Witte3 1Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK 2Department of Design, Manufacturing and Engineering Management, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow UK 3Strathclyde Institute of Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK ABSTRACT Microbial biotechnologies have received attention in the construction industry in recent times. This is partly driven by the climate change motivated transition towards the adoption of low carbon and environmentally friendly cementitious technologies in varied sectors of the construction industry. The multidisciplinary approach by researchers in the emerging area of Construction Biotechnology has led to the development of innovative low costs and low carbon microbial-based products like bio-bricks, bio concrete or self-healing concrete/bricks mediated by bacteria, fungi, and biofilms. Similar advancements are recorded in the development of microbial biocements and biogrouts, as well as the recent concepts of engineered growth of microbial living systems (e.g., using bacteria, fungal mycelia, microbial communities such as biofilms, lichens) towards applications in ground improvement, as living building materials, or as resource for production of construction materials. This paper presents a brief scoping review of the research advancements in the development of microbial-based materials/products/processes for applications in the construction industry.

Almeida ScSchool of Computing, EngineeringEn and Built EnvironmentEn Sustainable Materials & Structures Research Group Young Researchers’ Forum V 22nd April 2021, online The Institute of Concrete Technology Preface YRF V ‐ Innovations in Construction Materials, is a research forum on for early‐career scientists and engineers working in the field of construction materials, which was jointly organised by the Sustainable Materials and Structures Research Group of Glasgow Caledonian University and the Institute of Concrete Technology. The forum builds on the success of the previous four events on this topic held by The Society of Chemical Industry (London 2012), University College London (London 2014), Imperial College (London 2016) and Northumbria University (Newcastle 2018). Due to the COVID‐19 pandemic the YRF V, originally scheduled to be held in Glasgow in April 2020, had to be postponed and the ‘face‐to‐face” presentations were replaced by the online presentations. The Forum was opened by the Associate Dean Research Prof Ole Pahl and the Past President of the Institute of Concrete Technology Dr Raman Mangabhai. The intention of organisers was to provide an opportunity for early‐career researchers to showcase their work in the area of construction materials in an international context. The speakers from Brazil, Iraq, Iran, Switzerland and the UK contributed to the success of the event. Innovations in Construction Materials is a very broad topic involving aspects starting from the material properties and behaviour, via structural performance to serviceability and durability.

    UNIVERSITY OF BRIGHTON MING HUNG DAVIS MAK MARCH 2 | 2019-2020 RSEARCH PRACTICES SPECIALISATION ARCHITECTURE OF LIVING SOIL University of Brighton | MArch 2 | Research and Practice Specialisation | AI717 | 2019 - 2020 Abstract Architecture has long been designated as a structure for humans, setting borders to nature. In other words, architecture tends to force nature to adapt to man-made infrastructure. The negative impact of the traditional building industry on the environment appears to create an ecological crisis. A possible alternative approach to architecture is to co-design with nature. Projects in co-designing with nature are often prototyped at the I hereby declare that, scale of the branch and tree. Co-designing at architectural scales is less convincing in the context of designing with the eco-system. I have consulted, and understand, the information provided in Co-designing with nature has been successfully prototyped at small scales.
