Assem Hassan

Assem Hassan is a Professor in Civil Engineering at Memorial University's Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science. His research pioneers eco-friendly construction materials, particularly waste-tyre rubber applications in concrete for seismic and impact resistance.

Key investigations include structural behavior of large-scale elements under static/seismic loads, ductility enhancement, and service-life prediction. He develops self-consolidating/high-performance concrete using industrial byproducts and fibers.

Publications extensively cover rubberized concrete performance, fiber reinforcement synergies, and cold-temperature material behavior. His work advances sustainable infrastructure through waste valorization and durability optimization.
