  • Comparing different strategies of minimising embodied carbon in concrete floors 
    Jayasinghe, Amila; Orr, John; Hawkins, Will; Ibell, Tim; Boshoff, W.P. (Billy) (Elsevier, 2022-04)
    The present climate emergency demands the construction industry to minimise the carbon footprint of concrete buildings. In this paper, the potential different optimisation strategies to reduce ‘cradle-to-gate’ embodied ...
  • Comparing the embodied carbon and cost of concrete floor solutions 
    Jayasinghe, Amila; Orr, John; Ibell, Tim; Boshoff, W.P. (Billy) (Elsevier, 2021-11)
    Multi-objective optimisation of concrete floors for economic and environmental performance is critical in the present context since the building construction sector is responsible for a rising share of the global economy ...
  • Minimising embodied carbon in reinforced concrete flat slabs through parametric design 
    Jayasinghe, Amila; Orr, John; Ibell, Tim; Boshoff, W.P. (Billy) (Elsevier, 2022-06)
    Minimising carbon emissions from the building construction industry is of paramount importance in the present context due to the rising concerns of climate change. This paper explores the potential of minimising embodied ...
