The overall aim of our research is to eventually develop a viable system, using pinus radiata, for multi-storey timber buildings up to 6 storeys. One of the main issues is achieving sound resistant timber floors that are economically viable. This paper reports on the acoustic testing of a prototype floor, with radiata pole joists. Measurements were made of the objective performance. The results...

We introduce a Bayesian approach to multiple testing. The method is an extension of the false discovery rate (FDR) method due to Benjamini and Hochberg (1995). We also examine the empirical Bayes approach to simultaneous inference proposed by Efron, Tibshirani, Storey and Tusher (2001). We show that, in contrast to the single hypothesis case – where Bayes and frequentist tests do not agree even...

Cortical blindness as a sequelae of trauma has been reported in the literature but its pathophysiology remains unknown. We report a case of transient post-traumatic cortical blindness as a result of bilateral occipital lobe infarcts in a multiply injured patient after a 6-storey fall from height. We discuss the possible aetiologies for our patient’s condition and reviewed the relevant literatur...
