Dr. Sandeep Chaudhary is currently working as Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Indore. Before joining IIT Indore, he served as a faculty member in different capacities at MNIT Jaipur. His areas of specialization are structural analysis and design and building materials including waste utilization. His group carries out both analytical and experimental studies. The experimental studies range from microstructure to full-scale. He has served on prestigious committees at the national and international levels and is presently chairing the standing committee (Design) of the Asian Concrete Federation. He has published more than eighty papers in internationally reputed journals and currently holds two patents and one technology transfer in his name.
Dr. Tanmay Gupta is engaged at present as Assistant Professor in Civil Engineering Department, Jaypee University of Information Technology, Solan (H.P) India. He has published 26 research papers in SCI & Scopus indexed journals, international conferences of repute along with authoring four book chapters. He is also acting as reviewer of many journals of international prestige. His zeal to resolve structural engineering challenges in a practical way imparts him with a charismatic enigma. He also possesses experience as consultant design civil engineer and bridge site inspector. Currently, he is actively involved in the training of Indian government officials in order to bridge the gap between the latest academic standards and practices prevalent in the professional construction world. He is closely working with the Indian Green Building Council and Himachal Govt to promote sustainable construction and measures to mitigate natural disasters.
