He had been working at the R. Lemaire Centre for Conservation at the KUL from 1993 to 2001. From 2001 to 2003, he was research associate at the University of Bath.

CV 履歷 (E, F, I)ResearchHis research concerns safety assessment of heritage structures, surveying techniques and ancient construction techniques. He is particularly interested by Gothic vaults and other objects where geometrical, technical and structural aspects are intimately related. In his Ph.D. dissertation [pdf], and later works he studied the influence of the release of the classical plasticity theory hypotheses on the stability of vaulted structures. His most recent research concerns the dynamic behaviour of block structures and arches, material and structural authenticity in interventions on the built heritage and the constructional aspects of adobe vernacular architecture in Taiwan.
