Autorenporträt

Leo Razdolsky has more than fifty years of experience in structural engineering, including the design of high-rise and mid-rise buildings, field inspections, and construction management. His specialty projects include stadiums, cable structures, exhibition halls and pavilions, restoration and rehabilitation of buildings, power plants, cooling towers, and bridges. He also has experience in computer modeling, wind-tunnel-testing analysis, dynamic analysis of structures, seismic design, and complex-foundation-systems analysis and design. Dr Razdolsky has been teaching various structural engineering courses for more than fifteen years at the University of Illinois at Chicago and at Northwestern University. For the past ten years, he has been conducting research on the analytical methods of obtaining the structural fire load and on high-rise building designs subjected to abnormal fire conditions. He is currently a member of the Fire and Safety Working Group at the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH).
