Professor Siu Lai Chan, Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong
Siu-Lai Chan is a Professor in the Department of Civil and Structural Engineering at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University.
His research interests include the stability analysis and design of steel structures, nonlinear finite element analysis, glass and slender skeletal structures, steel, bamboo and aluminum scaffolding and pre-tensioning steel structures.
Sui Lai has published more than 250 papers in journals, books, conferences and keynote/invited papers in major steel conferences overseas. His book – Non-linear static and cyclic analysis of steel frames with semi-rigid connections (Elsevier, 2000, p336), summarises his work in the area before 2000.
Sui-Lai is a principal consultant of the Code of Practice for the Structural Uses of Steel (published by the Buildings Department). He developed a computer-based and practical design method bypassing the prescriptive use of effective length, charts and tables in Code. Since 1998, the "simulation-based" design method has been utilised in a number of practical steel structures in the region and was used in the 2008 and 2009 HKIE award winning projects in Hong Kong and Macau. In conjunction with Tongji University in China, Prof. Chan was given the Class I award by The Ministry of Education in Mainland China for work in nonlinear analysis and design of high rise buildings in 2009. |
