    • Carbonation in stabilised peat: an accelerated pilot study 

      Duggan, Alan R.; McCabe, Bryan A.; Clifford, Eoghan; Goggins, Jamie (ICE Institution of Civil Engineers, 2015)
      Due to stringent environmental regulations, embodied carbon estimates are being used increasingly to assess the environmental impact of major building and infrastructure projects, including their geotechnical components. ...

    • Evidence of stabilised peat as a net carbon sink 

      Duggan, Alan R.; McCabe, Bryan A.; Goggins, Jamie; Clifford, Eoghan (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019-01-09)
      Mass stabilization, a ground improvement solution used for construction in peatlands, involves mixing suitable dry binders into the peat, increasing strength and stiffness and reducing permeability. A previous pilot study ...

    • Stabilisation for peat improvement: Extent of carbonation and environmental implications 

      Duggan, Alan R.; McCabe, Bryan A.; Goggins, Jamie; Clifford, Eoghan (Elsevier, 2020-06-13)
      The construction industry is a large contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions. In recent years, the industry has begun to consider sustainability alongside technical merit, cost and programme when analysing construction ...
