Structural engineering

The Structural Engineering group is focused on delivering high-impact fundamental and applied research in resilient and sustainable infrastructure. Our leading experts are working towards improving the behaviour of advance structural materials and developing new energy-efficient and sustainable construction technologies. We are also lending our expertise and contributing to designing Australian and international codes of practices. 

The Structural Engineering Research Group is focused on four key themes: 

• Advanced structural materials and material characterisation 
• Development of advanced structural analysis and design methods 
• Ageing infrastructure and sustainability 
• Advance computational techniques and digital infrastructure 

The group has strong links to industry and Government bodies including:
