Seismic Performance and Generalized Damage Risk of Modular Cross Laminated Timber Houses Across Ten United States Cities

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 687-703, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Housing shortages in the United States and the pursuit of sustainable and resilient communities have positioned cross‐laminated timber (CLT) housing as a promising alternative due to the ability to design for modularity, ease of construction, and low embodied carbon performance.

Deriving the Charring Rate of a Wood Fibre Insulation Board by Exposure to the ISO 834 Standard Fire

Fire and Materials, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 135-144, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Wood fibre insulation boards (WFIB) are widely used combustible building materials, commonly applied in energy‐efficient construction for their thermal and hygric performance. The present study investigates the behaviour of the most common type of wood fibre insulation when exposed to the ISO 834 standard fire.

Monte Carlo tree search for mass timber building design optimization

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 31, Page 6242-6260, 29 December 2025.
Abstract Mass timber construction has gained significant traction in recent years due to its sustainability and lower energy demands. However, its broader adoption remains limited by higher material costs, compared to conventional construction materials.

Experimental Characterization of a Full‐Scale Stair System Detailed to Achieve Seismic Resiliency

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 14, Page 3519-3540, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Stair systems are the primary means of egress in and out of a building during and after an earthquake. Therefore, it is essential to detail these critical nonstructural systems such that they remain operable during and after an earthquake of moderate to high levels of intensity.

Fire Testing as a Tool in Fire Safety Engineering: A Norwegian Perspective

Fire and Materials, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 1109-1123, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Fire testing has long been used to assess the performance of building products and construction materials under fire exposure. In addition to the widespread use of standard tests for fire safety certification, the application of non‐standard and customized fire tests has received attention.

A lightweight binocular vision‐supported framework for 3D structural dynamic response monitoring

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 25, Page 4364-4377, 20 October 2025.
Abstract Current three‐dimensional (3D) displacement measurement algorithms exhibit practical limitations, such as computational inefficiency, redundant point cloud data storage, reliance on preset targets, and restrictions to unidirectional measurements. This research aims to address computation efficiency and accuracy issues in binocular camera‐based
