Professor Shao鈥檚 research aims at improving the sustainability and automation level of the construction industry by promoting circular utilization and autonomous construction. Current projects focus on (1) developing sustainable, resilient, and adaptable structural systems that can be reused/reconfigured due to function/climate changes and are engineered for robotic construction, (2) advancing the knowledge and design theory of structures with Ultra-high Performance Concrete (UHPC) and/or Fiber-reinforced Polymer (FRP), and (3) developing autonomous solutions for various construction tasks. Our research adopts an interdisciplinary approach, which includes the development and usage of high-performance materials, innovative structural systems, advanced design methods, and autonomous construction methods (AI, robotic control, computer vision, etc.).听

Our team is committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and dynamic educational environment. We support the unique dreams of each student. We are determined to help our team members gain the best educational experience and professional development. Through our research and educational activities, we strive to make the civil engineering industry more accessible and attractive to women, minority groups, and persons with disabilities.
