This is hardcore: CNC prototypes for timber cores : Designing multi-storey timber buildings from the inside out

, 2014
No architect will make a dent in the universe by designing an excellent services shaft or HVAC system, and yet architects could certainly do a lot worse than focusing on redefining the hidden innards supporting our built environment.

Mass Timber

, 2020
The goal of this project was to research and evaluate the usage of mass timber in structures. An 8-story residential building was designed and analyzed by remodeling a 5-story residential/commercial building.

Preparation of MOEAMCl and MAAm Based Hydrogels and Effective Use in Anionic Dye Adsorption

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 142, Issue 16, April 20, 2025.
ABSTRACT In this study, hydrogels based on [2‐(Methacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride (MOEAMCl) and methacrylamide (MAAm) were synthesized for the removal of anionic dyes from aqueous solutions. Following detailed characterization, the use of hydrogels for methyl orange (MO) adsorption was investigated.

Apparent sound insulation in mass timber buildings

, 2020
This Report presents the results from experimental studies of the airborne sound transmission of mass timber assemblies, together with an explanation of the calculation procedures to predict the apparent sound transmission class (ASTC) rating between adjacent spaces in a building constructed of mass timber assemblies. The experimental data which is the

Did AI win after all?

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Algorithmic platforms are reshaping how people work and how human activity is rendered intelligible within data‐intensive systems. This paper argues that Heidegger's philosophy of technology, specifically Ge‐stell (enframing) and Poiesis (bringing‐forth), offers information science a conceptual vocabulary for understanding both algorithmic ...

Timber-steel-hybrid beams for multi-storey buildings

, 2012
For modern multi-storey buildings timber-steel-hybrid elements present a very efficient construction method. The combination of these two materials leads to economic and ecologic benefits as the construction height can be optimized, the earthquake ...

Case study houses 2.0 : Mass-customised multi-storey timber buildnings : Competitive high-rise timber structures from an architectural and engineering point of view

, 2012
The authors present a rule-based system that applies to the architecture of innovative tall timber buildings, and provide examples of interesting multi-storey timber buildings that can be constructed through the application of those rules.

The potential use of mass timber in mid-to high-rise construction and the associated carbon benefits in the United States.

PLoS ONE
Nonresidential and mid- to high-rise multifamily residential structures in the United States currently use little wood per unit floor area installed, because earlier building codes lacked provisions for structural wood use in those types of buildings ...
