Research abstracts The Structural Engineer has published abstracts of completed PhD theses from time to time in the past. In future these will appear on the ‘Research matters’ page.

Structural engineering has been a vital part of the research programme at the Building Research Establishment throughout its 75-year life. The underlying aim has been to interpret engineering science for practical use in building construction, bringing the science to the point where designers can use it to ensure safety, serviceability and economy in structures. G.S.T. Armer and P.S.J. Buller
The paper examines developments in geotechnical matters affecting the foundation behaviour of low-rise buildings since an earlier paper was published in The Structural Engineer in 1978. R.M.C. Driscoll, M.S. Crilly and A.P. Butcher
