The aim of this research was the development of an innovative, high quality and inexpensive modular system that does not exclude increased ecological standards.

This paper focuses on modular construction as an off-site production system, where a framework to compare waste generation of modular and conventional, in-situ construction methods is proposed

This paper explores the conceptual design for an upcycled shipping container building, which is designed as a carbon-smart modular living solution to a single family house under three design scenarios, related to cold, temperate, and hot–humid climatic zones, respectively

The research team collated extensive data on the design and build of 100 of the UK’s most noteworthy completed CLT buildings. With input from specialist engineers, contractors and key stakeholders this information has been structured into chapters which aim to provide designers, contractors and developers with the key information they require to begin their own journey with engineered timber.

This article introduces the composition and terminology used for platform timber frame building structures and describes the structural engineering checks which are required to verify the adequacy of the vertical load paths and the strength and stiff ness of the individual framing members

Architecture adapted to the new environmental situation. The study proposes a solution with a reversible construction system with low environmental impact materials, which ensure 100% reuse of the components.

This article presents some criteria aimed at improving the durability of wood outdoors, as a result of experience, diagnosis and actions carried out on a wooden pedestrian bridge.

This project aims to quantify the emissions related to the construction sector in Ireland and the built environment more generally
