The aim of this collaboration was to create a practical design guide for the working professional that provides state-of-the-art guidance on integrating water reuse into modern day projects.The MKA Foundation partnered with other subject matter and industry experts to create an objective and … [Read more...] about Onsite Non-Potable Water Reuse Practice Guide
Since 2016, we have been collaborating with Resource Fiber (RF) to test the strength, stiffness, and fire resistive properties of bamboo structural members. This has included a focus on composite slabs created from bamboo fiber nail-laminated timber (NLT) planks, with a concrete topping slab. In … [Read more...] about Mass Bamboo Research and Development
Understanding the behavior of structural elements subjected to extreme wind loading is key to the advancement of Performance-Based Wind Design. This project provides experimental testing of concrete link beams with non-seismic detailing when exposed to a large number of mildly-inelastic load cycles. … [Read more...] about Evaluation of the Performance of Concrete Coupling Beams Subjected to Inelastic Demands Under Wind Loading
