I worked on peer review and producing design solutions for several major projects. North Queensland Stadium• Developed 3D finite element models of North Queensland Stadium (using ETABS) and analysed the static/dynamic behaviour of the structure.• Referred structural and architectural drawings, design standards/reports and extracted necessary data and information for computer modelling of the stadium.• Evaluated loads (dead, imposed, wind and earthquake) based on Australian… Show more I worked on peer review and producing design solutions for several major projects.

The building is 45 years old and proposed to be increased in size with new hybrid structure and provided with a 50-year extension of life. Show less

I evaluated the durability of CFRP-steel strengthening systems under extreme environmental conditions and the research findings are published in Composite Structures. • Designed CFRP-steel strengthening systems. Developed and planned experiments, collected data, established facts and drew conclusions to solve durability issues of CFRP-steel strengthening systems.• Conducted tests on CFRP-strengthened steel structural members to evaluate structural behaviour and failure modes under… Show more I evaluated the durability of CFRP-steel strengthening systems under extreme environmental conditions and the research findings are published in Composite Structures. • Designed CFRP-steel strengthening systems. Developed and planned experiments, collected data, established facts and drew conclusions to solve durability issues of CFRP-steel strengthening systems.• Conducted tests on CFRP-strengthened steel structural members to evaluate structural behaviour and failure modes under different environmental conditions.• Developed a test method to simulate degradation in CFRP-steel strengthening systems. • Established shear stress-slip models for degraded CFRP-steel systems which can be used to assess the long-term durability of CFRP-steel structural systems.• Developed analytical model to predict the durability of CFRP-steel strengthening systems and validated by experimental data.• Measured material properties of various civil engineering materials (steel, CFRP, GFRP and epoxy adhesives) used in strengthening systems.• Performed finite element analysis and validated the analysis to simulate structural performance of CFRP-steel strengthening systems. Conducted parametric studies to evaluate the effects of relevant parameters on the structural behaviour of the strengthening system. Show less

Worked in three main development projects and gained valuable experience on contruction techniques. I collaboratively worked with site engineers, design engineers and the other technical staff in civil engineering construction projects providing administrative and technical support. Katugastota Bridge ProjectA bridge on Kandy Jaffna Road at Katugastota - 4 spans of 32.5 m long post-tensioned beams.Bentota Bridge ProjectA bridge on Colombo-Hambantota road with total span… Show more Worked in three main development projects and gained valuable experience on contruction techniques.
