London, United Kingdom

Research in Disproportionate Collapse of Reinforced Concrete Building Structures. I have facilitated a member of the project team WG6.T2 commissioned under mandate M515 of CEN/TC 250 to develop robustness guidance for the next generation of the Eurocodes. This led to the publication of a novel horizontal tying force method, which is aimed at replacing the.
