Understanding the compatibility of UK resource for dowel laminated timber construction (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Plowas, W., Hairstans, R., Bell, T., & Bros Williamson, J. (2016). Understanding the compatibility of UK resource for dowel laminated timber construction.

Dowel Laminated Timber (DLT also know as Brettstapel) is a technique of constructing large-scale solid timber panels for use as structural or non-structural elements. The technique utilizes smaller sawn timber sections mechanically fixed together wit... Read More about Understanding the compatibility of UK resource for dowel laminated timber construction.

A longitudinal building fabric and energy performance analysis of two homes built to different energy principles (2016)
Journal Article
Bros-Williamsom, J., Garnier, C., & Currie, J. I. (2016). A longitudinal building fabric and energy performance analysis of two homes built to different energy principles. Energy and Buildings, 130, 578-591. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2016.08.052

This paper reports on the building performance monitoring and annual energy demand of two homes built side-by-side over an occupancy period of three years. The study compares the results from on-site monitoring against the assumed parameters and calc...
