Welcome to CivMin’s SuStrucSy Research Group

Our research group explores the future of construction through mass timber systems, digital fabrication, and computational structural engineering. We combine material innovation with advanced manufacturing, structural optimization, and design-for-assembly approaches to enable the next generation of prefabricated and modular timber buildings.

Our work is collaborative, bridging academia and industry through partnerships with leading fabrication centers, software developers, construction and engineering firms, architectural studios, and policy institutions. From novel connection systems to integrated design platforms, we are redefining how timber architecture is conceived, engineered, and built!
