Research Title:
Sustainable materials for 3D concrete printed structural elements in a quake-prone context, ҕl-New Zealand
Main Supervisor:
Dr. Giuseppe Loporcaro

Associate Supervisor:
Dr. Don Clucas
Research interests:
My research interests are related to alternative materials, and the mechanical behaviour and sustainability of concrete structures. The core of my doctoral research is the development of cost effective low-emitting CO2mixes for 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) and the experimental testing of half-scale RC columns with printed lost formwork.
Personal interests:
When not working on my research, I love traveling and learning about everything and anything. I also like to work on architectural models, artistic projects and to read about fine arts and humanities topics.
Academic history:
I hold a bachelor degree with first class honours in Industrial Engineering (2013) and a master degree in Structural Engineering (building structures) (2020) from the University of Cadiz and University of Barcelona, respectively.
