Adam comes with a breadth of hands-on and technical experience, which is largely unique in the field of structural engineering. Prior to and throughout his degree in civil engineering from the University of British Columbia, he gained experience in the design and construction of timber structures as a carpenter, foreman, estimator, and structural EIT. This enables him to view projects from the perspective of designers, builders, and managers, assisting him in creating cost-effective, constructible, and efficient solutions.
Adam returned to the University of British Columbia where he earned a masters degree in structural and earthquake engineering. His research focused on the development of timber-concrete composite (TCC) technology and vibration performance of floors. His work in this area sought to identify high-performance and low cost connection technology and compare their performance across the range of mass timber products. This work has set him apart as a distinguished expert in the application of TCC and vibration performance of floors.
Adam’s portfolio features: pedestrian bridges, civic structures, high-end residential homes, museum; art gallery; performing arts center, and mass timber designs including research and development collaborations with industry and academia.
