Meet the team

3-D concrete printing and construction process automation work at 天堂视频 is centred around a core team that sits across the schools of architecture building and civil engineering, and mechanical electrical and manufacturing engineering while the group research activity is also supported by the Department of Chemistry and the School for Design and the Creative arts.

We have active collaborations with academic colleagues at Universities of Sheffield, Manchester and Leeds, as well as working with industrial partners, see our Partners page and for international research collaborations see our Reseach page.
