"It’s attractive that there is no limit to the challenge of structural engineering!" "We will do our best to ensure the safety and high technology of facilities that have a close impact on our lives."
Beginning as an academic organization of the first structural engineering in Korea in 1988, it is now known as the "platform of convergence technology" for over 2,000 nationwide structural engineers in civil engineering, architecture, machinery, shipbuilding, and this is the first time that a local university professor has taken over the chairmanship. He is a veteran of 35 years’ career in Civil Engineering. "As soon as we arrive at the bridge accident site like the Kwangan Bridge RAMP-2 ship crash, we first check whether the external impact damaged the ’critical part’ of the bridge such as bridge pier, bridge bearing and bridge deck, and then, an emergency safety check is carried out to quickly analyze its safety." he added, "The result of this check is always tense because it has a big impact on the citizens’ life, such as the restriction of vehicle traffic, but the conclusion comes from structural engineering perspective." After graduating from Seoul National University in 1984 and receiving his master’s and doctoral degrees from KAIST, he became a professor at Pukyong National University in 1993 after having spent four years in design and construction experience at Samsung General Construction. He is a structural engineer who is proficient in both theory and practice. ’Structural Engineering’ is a discipline that safely and economically design, install and maintain facilities and structures such as bridges, buildings, dams, marine and port facilities, underground facilities, ships, and aircraft. "Structural engineering is what holds up the structures that are the "symbol of the times", including the world’s lowest 48 meters long immersion tunnel, the Geoga Bridge, and the world’s longest 3.6 km suspension bridge in Turkey.", he said. In relation to the activities of the Computational Structural Engineering Institute of Korea, he said, "It is the only organization in Korea that conducts multidisciplinary academic activities in the field of structural engineering. It has been researching the convergence study that has been emphasized today for 30 years.", and he stressed that "Structural engineering is also essential for making machines or making ships or aircraft, so academic cooperation between different sectors is important for co-development." He emphasized, "We will strive for academic development in this field by fusing information and communication technology (ICT) into structural engineering based on more diversified computer-based technology in the changing times of transition to the 4th industrial revolution technology environment." "Structural engineering is essential to learn basic sciences such as physics and mathematics. Because of this, there are many perceptions that it is a difficult academic discipline, so the number of subsequent generations is decreasing.", he said. He did not forget to ask for the challenge of young, talented people, "The biggest attraction of structural engineering is that there is no limit to the challenges of human structural engineering, whether it be underwater structures, underground structures, or moon structures." <Pukyong Today> |
