Dr. Mohammad Mirshekari PhD, BEng (Hons)

Interspan would like to congratulate Mohammad Mirshekari on the award of his PhD from Kingston University.

Since starting with Interspan over 4 years ago as a design engineer, Mohammad has been balancing his project-based workload with his work on the Behaviour of Pre-stressed FRP Reinforced Concrete Beams.

The aim of the PhD project was to investigate the behaviour of BFRP-reinforced beams with different levels of prestressing and to compare their deformability with the deformations developed in steel-reinforced beams.

As a design manager, Mohammad has been responsible for the design and construction process of PT concrete slabs for various clients and building types including:

• Arrowhead Quay (The Wardian), London
• Marble Arch Place, London
• Van der Valk Zuidas, Amsterdam
• 1-5 Grosvenor Place, London
• Lillie Square, London
• Inverness Justice Centre, Inverness
• Capital Dock (Block C), Dublin
• Academiestraat Gent, Gent

Mohammad has also written and co-written various papers published in international conferences, including the Comparison between punching shear capacity of PT and RC slabs according to different design codes, fib Symposium 2017, 12-14 June, Maastricht, Netherlands.

Well done, Mohammad. We look forward to working with you as your career develops.
