Conservation of heritage structures
At the Centre for Infrastructure Management, we have extensive expertise in the characterisation of heritage materials by means of analytical laboratory techniques and in the development and evaluation of mortars and processes for the conservation and repair of heritage structures.
Materials and recycling solutions
The Centre for Infrastructure Management provides an independent materials testing service to clients and provide consultancy/R&D to develop innovative solutions for new materials development and applications.
Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE)
Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) is a method which provides a view of the occupants’ appraisal of the building and assesses how well the building matches the users' requirements. POEs are normally conducted a year after the building has been in use.
Structural testing
This PhD aims to develop work by means of the relatively new Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM) that permits a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of fracture and crack propagation in advanced composite structures
KTP helps secure £14m worth of orders for Joesph Rhodes
An innovative new approach to Super Plastic Forming and Diffusion Bonding processes (SPF/DB), developed through a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) with Sheffield Hallam has played a fundamental role in securing orders worth £14 million from BAE for Joseph Rhodes Ltd
