Please join us for another ASBN SustainabiliTEA - a time to enjoy some tea (or morning beverage of your choice) whilst having a yarn about a diversity of topics around sustainable and regenerative built environments.

-------------

Join us to hear about the integration of digital design and automated manufacturing techniques with earth-based construction materials, including cob and rammed earth. Mohamed will focus on 3D construction printing with earth-based materials and sustainable building design. Mohamed's work explores how emerging construction technologies can support more sustainable, low-carbon, and locally responsive building practices.

//Our Speaker

Dr Mohamed Gomaa is a Senior Lecturer and Major Discipline Coordinator in Architectural Engineering at Swinburne University of Technology, Australia. An architect, researcher and educator, he brings over a decade of academic and professional experience across Australia, the UK and the MENA region, with expertise in digital fabrication, sustainable architectural design and building performance.

His research focuses on sustainable construction technologies, particularly automation and robotic 3D printing of earth-based materials. Working at the intersection of architecture, engineering and advanced manufacturing, he explores innovative approaches to low-carbon construction using locally sourced materials. Mohamed leads and contributes to several competitively funded research initiatives, including an Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage Project and the ARC Training Centre for Digital Architectural Translation. His work bridges academic research, industry collaboration and architectural practice to advance sustainable and accessible construction solutions, particularly for regional and remote communities.

We look forward to learning about this exciting technology, whilst sharing space with you all virtually over a soothing cuppa.

Acknowledgement of Country

Adelaide Sustainable Building Network acknowledges the Kaurna People of the Adelaide Plains, Tarntanya, where our work is most often undertaken. We also acknowledge the Peramangk People of the Mt Lofty Ranges, the Ngarrindjeri of Fleurieu, Coorong and lower Murray regions and the Ngadjuri of the Barossa and Mid-North as the traditional custodians of the land where we live and work. We pay our respects to all Elders, past and present, of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander nations.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander spirituality recognises the connectedness of people and culture with earth, sky and water country. The land is alive with traces of Dreaming ancestors. Always was, always will be, Aboriginal land
