Bryan Magee

Dr Bryan Magee is a Senior Lecturer in Construction Materials at Ulster University's School of the Built Environment since 2013. He is a chartered civil engineer and concrete technologist with over 20 years of experience in education, research, and policy-making in civil/structural engineering.

• Academic Posts: University of Cape Town (1997-98), Purdue University (1998-99), University of New Hampshire (1999-2001), Queen's University Belfast (2009-13)
• Industry Experience: TRL Ltd. (2001-03), The Mineral Products Association (2003-09)

His research focuses on the behaviour and performance of civil/structural materials, particularly concrete durability, additive manufacturing applications in construction, hydration of cementitious materials, and pore structure analysis. He has published over 50 refereed technical papers and co-founded international conferences including ICDCS, CERAI, and Concrete Solutions.

Recent trends in his publications emphasize Concrete Additive Manufacturing (with keywords like Geopolymer, Portland Cement, and Test Methods), Durability Assessment (including permeability testing and marine exposure), and Hydration Kinetics of alkali-activated materials.

• Confirmed international collaborator on NSF 3D Concrete Printing Network (2021)
• FUSION programme with BHP Laboratories (2019)
• Multiple Innovation Vouchers (2019-2025) with industry partners

Bryan has advised PhD researchers like Calum Tosh and Bintul Zehra. He serves on editorial boards for journals like Green Materials and Construction and Building Materials, and actively contributes to professional organizations including The Concrete Society (Chair NI 2018-20) and Institute of Concrete Technology.
