Edwin Nagy

Edwin focuses primarily on teaching, but is also active professionally as a consultant with a hydro-focused engineering company and works with researchers on infrastructure materials. He teaches structural design courses (steel, concrete, timber and masonry) as well as general civil engineering courses for first and fourth year students. He has worked with honors students and graduate students in Structures and Geotechnical Engineering. As a consultant, he mostly mentors younger engineers and provides quality assurance on structural design. Edwin has studied composite wood products under blast loading including FRP-reinforced light framing and cross-laminated timber. He worked extensively with the AIT Bridge-in-a-Backpack (composite concrete) and has conducted experimental and numerical research on fracture in wood and concrete. Edwin serves on an ASCE ad-hoc committee on engineering education and is a former chair of the SEI Design Practices committee. He has traveled with UMaine’s Engineer’s Without Borders chapter and advises UMaine’s ASCE Steel Bridge competition team.
