Safety & Sustainability

Research and develop a comprehensive design framework that integrates safety assessment and sustainability considerations for bio-based composite materials, addressing the current challenges and gaps in understanding their performance and characteristics. The main key objectives and challenges of this project include:
•Explore bio-based fiber-polymer composite materials as a promising avenue for sustainable construction
•Address the scarcity of comprehensive data regarding the performance and characteristics of bio-based composite materials.
•Study the structural reliability of bio-based composite materials and develop a comprehensive design framework to determine their safety.
•Integrate sustainability considerations into the structural design process to optimize building performance and minimize environmental impact.
