Presentation / Conference Contribution
Plowas, W., Hairstans, R., Bell, T., & Bros Williamson, J. (2016, June). Understanding the compatibility of UK resource for dowel laminated timber construction. Presented at Integrated Design Conference

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.

Translation between existing and proposed harmonized airborne sound insulation descriptors: A statistical approach based on in-situ measurements (2016)
Journal Article
Monteiro, C., Machimbarrena, M., Tarrero, A. I., & Smith, R. S. (2017). Translation between existing and proposed harmonized airborne sound insulation descriptors: A statistical approach based on in-situ measurements. Applied Acoustics, 116, 94-106. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apacoust.2016.09.017

A standard defining a common acoustic classification scheme for dwellings is under development by ISO TC42/SC2/WG29 based on the outcomes of European project COST Action TU0901. The proposal stands on the assumption that in the long term many countri...
