About
Dr Seyed Meghdad Ghaseminia is a structural engineer whose research focuses on the lateral response of masonry and concrete structures in seismic regions. He integrates experimental investigation with advanced numerical modelling to deepen understanding of seismic performance. His findings have informed Standards Australia’s BD-004 committee, helping shape reliable masonry design guidelines for masonry in Australian Masonry Standards AS3700. His work emphasises seismic resilience, identifying structural vulnerabilities and implementing innovative strategies to improve the safety and durability of buildings.
