Structural solutions for modular buildings targeting design flexibility that assist future disassembly and support a sustainable approach are emerging as the demand for prefabricated structures undergoes a rapid increase coupled with the urban expansion. From this perspective, the project R2U addresses the development...

Accurate prediction of ductile fracture in steels requires a mechanistic understanding of the evolution of microstructural voids under multiaxial loading. This work presents a mesoscale finite element framework implemented in Abaqus to characterise fracture initiation in structural steel using a representative volume e...

Sustainable construction increasingly depends on practices that enable not only efficient construction but also the deconstruction and reuse of structural components. However, the construction sector, characterized by its vast scale and inherent occupational risks, lacks mature solutions for the automation of such deco...

The growing pressure to decarbonise the construction industry has increased interest in structural systems that combine timber with other materials. Steel frames combined with mass‐timber floors, such as cross‐laminated timber (CLT), have been investigated as low‐carbon and lightweight solutions with strong reuse poten...
