Prof. Dr. Mauro Overend
Delft University of Technology (TU Delft)
Mauro is Professor of Structural Design & Mechanics at TU Delft. His research and teaching interests are at the interface of structural engineering, materials engineering and architecture which underpin the performance of high performance building envelopes and sustainable structures. Mauro studied Architecture & Civil Engineering followed by Structural Engineering at Masters level and a PhD on structural glass. After a few years of consulting engineering work in London in the fields of structural engineering and façade engineering, Mauro returned to full-time teaching and research. Since 2004 he has held tenured positions at internationally leading universities, but has retained strong links with industry. He has over 100 peer-reviewed publications on glass, building envelopes and sustainable structures to his credit. Mauro has a track record of leading international research networks in these domains and he is contributing to the drafting of international engineering design standards. He has won several international awards and his research and expertise have found applications in some of the most challenging buildings globally.
