Ed Saliklis

Ed Saliklis is Professor of Architectural Engineering at Cal Poly specializing in structural art and graphical statics. His research revitalizes historical engineering methods through computational approaches and develops pedagogical frameworks for interdisciplinary design education.

Publications: Authored textbooks integrating geometric principles with modern structural analysis, including 'Structures: A Studio Approach' (Springer 2020) that reimagines load visualization in buildings.

Educational Innovation: Created studio-based engineering curricula emphasizing visual computation and structural sensibility. His teaching integrates finite element analysis with historical techniques like the Müller-Breslau method.
