PROFESSIONAL
ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
. PhD research funded and published by Louisiana
Transportation Research Center (LTRC), Report No - 443
. Submitted a paper in ASCE Journal, Behavior of link slabs
reinforced with FRP grid
PROJECTS: Doctoral project deals with "Elimination of Deck Joints Using a
Corrosion Resistant FRP Approach". The objective of this
study is to replace an expansion joint by a link slab.
Initially modeled and analyzed the stresses in the girders,
decks and link slabs in bridge models using ANSYS software.
And also tested and analyzed few beams to determine the
structural behavior and strength of jointless bridge decks
under static loading. The overall investigation supports
the contention that durable jointless concrete bridge decks
may be designed and constructed with FRP grid link slabs.
EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES:
. The top racquet ball player in Louisiana Tech University
. Volunteered the technical symposium NIRMAAN and Youth
Festival
