The Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE) has shortlisted a paper co-authored by Professor Ali Bahadori-Jahromi, UWL Professor of Civil Engineering, as a finalist for the Structural Excellence Award.
Article body
An academic from the University of West London’s School of Computing and Engineering (SCE), Professor Bahadori-Jahromi, who also leads The Building Performance and Climate Change Research Group at SCE, has received this recognition in the HKIE’s annual awards.
The paper, titled "Effect of Concentrated Butt-Joints on Flexural Properties of Laminated Bamboo-Timber Flitch Beams," presents experimental and analytical studies on the flexural properties of laminated bamboo-timber flitch beams. This research was conducted by an international group of academics from institutions including Edinburgh Napier University, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, and Songkla University, Thailand.
It was a very interesting study to be involved in and of course it is always validating to be recognised for this kind of international research initiative,”
says Professor Bahadori-Jahromi.
