  • Adoption of precast hollow core panels for external walls of multi-storey buildings 
    Subakaran, R; Jayasinghe, MTR; Herath, HMST [Conference-Abstract]
    Precast hollow core wall panels have gained popularity for their efficient use as load-bearing and non-load-bearing wall elements. ICC ACOTEC hollow core wall panels are manufactured locally and intended to be used as ...
  • Design optimisation of a steel bridge bracket 
    Liyanagunawardhana, SK; Herath, HMST [Conference-Abstract]
    Steel brackets have a renowned potential of being used in bridge constructions as a load-bearing element. Due to the higher consumption of steel in bridge constructions, the emission of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) gas is increased ...
  • Design-informed structural optimisation 
    Amarasinghe, IT; Herath, HMST; Mallikarachchi, HMYC [Conference-Abstract]
    Structural optimisation has become an important tool in the field of Civil Engineering, but there is limited research done on structural optimisation of specific structures and components, especially for large construction ...
  • The effectiveness of different structural forms for mediumrise apartment buildings 
    Wijekoon, KMSR; Jayasinghe, MTR; Herath, HMST [Conference-Abstract]
    To fulfil the housing requirements of the ever-growing population with the scarcity of valuable land, the best solution is to come up with high-rise or medium-rise apartment buildings. The effect of lateral forces (wind ...
  • Homogenisation of ultra-thin woven fibre composite structures under high curvatures 
    Weerasinghe, WUD; Herath, HMST; Mallikarachchi, HMYC [Conference-Abstract]
    Utilising fibre-based textile structure as the composite reinforcement results in making composite more tailorable and effective for applications where various types of loads are anticipated to be supported by the ...
  • Parametric modelling and analysis of tensegrity structures 
    Samarawickrama, SKSR; Herath, HMST [Conference-Abstract]
    Tensegrity structures are based on a set of discontinuous compressible elements within a network of continuous tension elements, with isolated compressed elements (struts or bars) and prestressed tension elements (tendons ...
