Rate My Professor Allan Scott

Scott's academic career at the University of Canterbury encompasses extensive teaching and supervision responsibilities. He delivers courses such as Concrete Materials and Practice (ENCI621) and supervises research-based Master's and doctoral students on topics like development of novel low-carbon cements and seismic behavior of concrete structures. His highly cited publications demonstrate substantial impact in the field; for instance, "The effect of supplementary cementitious materials on chloride binding in hardened cement paste" (Thomas et al., 2012, Cement and Concrete Research) has garnered 735 citations, while "In-plane strengthening of clay brick unreinforced masonry wallettes using ECC shotcrete" (Lin et al., 2014) has 164 citations. Other significant works include studies on the influence of binder type on corrosion rates (2007) and pore solution chemistry in alkaline environments (2016). In recognition of his teaching excellence, Scott received the College of Engineering Teaching Award in 2018. With over 78 publications and more than 2,652 citations documented on ResearchGate, his research influences advancements in durable, low-emission construction materials and post-earthquake resilience.
