Research interests
I manage the UKCRIC Soil-Foundation-Structure Interaction (SoFSI) and Earthquake and Large Structures (EQUALS) Laboratories in the Faculty of Science and Engineering. My role involves providing technical expertise and support to research projects, including design, project management and construction of large-scale test campaigns.
The two facilities include three seismic shaking tables, reaction walls/floor and a 4m deep soil test pit for soil-structure interaction research.
Prior to joining the University of Bristol in 2021, I held various technical roles at the University of Bath, gaining experience in soils, structural and mechanical testing.
