Have a look at the this list for ideas: these are papers published by UCD researchers in this general area. Those are PhD level papers, but I think there are a few ideas there.

IMHO you'd have to be sure to make it a Structural thesis first, and Environment would be a secondary consideration. Example: there's all kinds of research going on to make cement less of an environmental nightmare, but "green" cement is no good to anyone if it results in crappy concrete . :cool:
