Lameck Onsarigo

Lameck Onsarigo serves as an Associate Professor in the College of Architecture & Environmental Design at Kent State University, specializing in construction management and sustainable building technologies with expertise spanning economic analysis, trenchless infrastructure methods, and emerging construction materials.

His academic foundation includes:

• Bachelor of Science in Construction Management from Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology
• Master of Technology Management and MBA from Bowling Green State University
• PhD in Technology Management from Indiana State University

Research focuses on construction economics (prevailing wage impacts, bid competitiveness), trenchless technologies (horizontal auger boring, pipe bursting), and sustainable construction (mass timber systems, environmental value engineering). His work integrates engineering principles with economic and environmental considerations to address industry challenges in cost management, risk mitigation, and sustainable practices.

Publication trends reveal an evolution from traditional construction economics toward sustainable material systems, with mass timber research emerging as a dominant theme since 2022 while maintaining contributions to trenchless technology and construction safety. This trajectory aligns with industry shifts toward carbon-neutral building practices and advanced risk management methodologies.
