The 9th International Symposium on Fiber Reinforced Polymer Reinforcement for Concrete Structures Symposium Organising Committee is pleased to announce the keynote speakers. Professor Sami Rizkalla Professor Rizkalla is currently a Distinguished Professor of Civil Engineering and Construction and the Director of the Constructed Facilities Laboratory at North Carolina State University. He is also the Director of the National Science Foundation Industry/University Collaborative Research Center on Repair of Buildings and Bridges with Composites at North Carolina State University Dr. Jian-Fei Chen Dr. Jian-Fei Chen is a Reader at Edinburgh University, U.K. He has research experience in many areas of structural engineering including the behaviour and modeling of FRP-strengthened concrete structures, solids flow & wall pressures in silos, and shell structures. He has authored or co-authored over 120 refereed publications, including the book FRP-Strengthened RC Structures published by Wiley in 2002. Dr. Chen is a Vice President of the International Institute for FRP in Construction (IIFC) and co-chairs the IIFC Working Group on Bond Behaviour of FRP in Structures. He is the recipient of several awards including the Howard Medal 2004 awarded by the Institution of Civil Engineers. Professor Chris Burgoyne Chris Burgoyne is Reader in Concrete Structures at the University of Cambridge, where he has been working since 1989. He has been involved with the use of high strength fibres for applications in Structural Engineering since 1982, when he was working at Imperial College in London. His initial studies concentrated on the use of aramid ropes as pre-stressing tendons for concrete structures, and stay cables for bridges. Later work has studied the use of aramid fibre spirals for containment of compression zones, and the application of fracture mechanics to the breakdown of bond with CFRP plates. He has presented keynote and invited lectures at many international conferences. Professor Jin-Guang Teng r. Jin-Guang Teng is Chair Professor of Structural Engineering, Dean of the Faculty of Construction and Land Use, and Associate Vice President of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. His research interests include the application of fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites in construction, steel structures, shell structures, and structural mechanics. From 2003 to 2006, Professor Teng served as the founding President of the International Institute for FRP in Construction (IIFC) , the leading international organisation dedicated to the advancement of the understanding and the application of FRP composites in the civil infrastructure. He is also the Editor-in-Chief of the international journal Advances in Structural Engineering and a member of the editorial boards of 5 other international journals.
