Personal profile
Research interests
After graduating, Andrew spent four years working in industry on road and transport related projects before completing his postgraduate studies. His main research interests are:
- Sustainable construction materials (clays in construction, low carbon concretes (especially geopolymer concrete) and self-healing concretes)
- Sustainable transportation infrastructure (including materials for transportation infrastructure and transport infrastructure to support the move to net-zero transport)
- Geotechnical engineering (including landslide assessment and retaining wall assessment)
He is currently Head of the Department for Architecture and CIvil Engineering at the University of Bath and has previously held positions as Associate Dean in the Faculty of Engineering and Design and Director of the University's Centre for Learning and Teaching.
Willing to supervise doctoral students
He is willing to supervise PhD students in the fields of sustainable transportation and transport infrastucture, sustainable construction materials, in particular earth based materials, geopolymers and self-healing concrete, as well as modelling earth materials in infrastructure, landslide, building and foundation applications.
