Structures Research Group





The Structures Group

The Structures Group is part of the Civil Engineering Division and is based in the Civil Engineering Building. Our research applies fundamental structural engineering understanding to complex real-world and sometimes out-of-this-world challenges. We explore new structural materials and find better ways to use old ones. We develop novel structural systems and work to extend the lives of those we already have. We envision buildings and infrastructure that serve people better and cost the world less.
