- Prestressing technique, applied on fibre-reinforced-polymer (FRP) composite materials, offers a sustainable strengthening solution to avoid demolishing and rebuilding thus reducing the consumption of natural resources. Led to Rezazadeh contributing to the ‘Bulletin related to prestressing of concrete’ for the technical committees of fib (International Federation for Structural Concrete, WP5.1.1, https://www.fib-international.org/commissions/com5-reinforcements.html). Led to the award from Foundation-for-Science-and-Technology (FCT) of Portugal to investigate prestressed FRPs for the strengthening of fire-damaged reinforced concrete columns (StreColesf-POCI-01-0145-FEDER-029485, €240k, https://isise.net/site/index.php?module=publicProjects&target=details&id=161) and a postdoctoral fellowship from FCT (CEECIND/01730/2018, “Sustainable seismic structural strengthening and durability recovery for improving service-life of fire-damaged concrete structures”).
