structures, fire and seismic engineering, sustainability and circular construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A central objective of my work is to identify common physical principles governing structural behaviour across different materials, technologies and scales, and to translate those principles into practical design methods, qualification procedures and engineering standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students should understand what a structure is physically doing before approaching it as a set of calculations.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p
