Recent highlights

Community Slope SAFEIn the last 10 years rainfall induced landslides resulted in 30K+ fatalities globally. People at risk can operate this low cost early warning system.

Built environment research capability video

Built environment research capabilityA partnership with industry to gain a deeper understanding of energy demand in buildings, to help the UK achieve its carbon reduction targets.

3DIR - free app for Autodesk Revit Building Information ModellingA partnership with industry to gain a deeper understanding of energy demand in buildings, to help the UK achieve its carbon reduction targets.

Listening for landslidesCollaboration with British Geological Survey. Developed a new sensor to detect landslides; soil and rock movement produces an early warning signal.

Matched-pair test houses: accurate quantification of energy saving measuresWorking out which energy saving techniques are most effective.
