- PhD Graduate
- CONSTRUCTION ENGINEERING AND MANAGEMENT
Briar's doctoral researchin Construction Engineering & Management (CEM)focusedon understanding thehousing safety perceptions of those involved with Puerto Rico's informal construction sector and how these housing safety perceptions do and do not align with structural performance assessments of informally constructed housingin hurricanes and earthquakesin Puerto Rico. aimedto determine local preference and understanding of building components that are safe; assess the structural performance of shelters in multi-hazard environments; and create acommunication design to assist communities and organizations in enhancing their resiliency to natural hazards.
