Haithem Soliman

Haithem Soliman is an Associate Professor in Civil Geological and Environmental Engineering at the University of Saskatchewan's College of Engineering. His Saskatoon-based research program advances pavement engineering through studies of materials performance, maintenance strategies, and infrastructure durability.

Soliman's work emphasizes cold-regions challenges, including freeze-thaw effects on asphalt microstructure and innovative uses of recycled plastics in binders. Recent publications demonstrate extensive use of non-destructive testing and imaging techniques to quantify material behavior under environmental and traffic stresses.

Key research threads include geogrid stabilization mechanisms, reclaimed asphalt optimization, and microstructure-based damage assessment. His laboratory develops practical solutions for sustainable infrastructure in harsh climates.
