Walid Deboucha

Walid Deboucha serves as a Teacher-researcher at CESI Engineering School in Rouen, France, affiliated with the Engineering and Digital Tools research team. His academic leadership includes piloting the Specialized Master's program in Construction Project Management, BIM and Digital Model, targeting both preparatory and engineering cycles.

His educational credentials feature a Doctorate in Civil Engineering (2017) jointly awarded by the University of Algiers (USTHB) and University of Nantes for research on environmental concretes, complemented by a Master of Research (2011) and Bachelor's Degree (2009) in Civil Engineering from the University of Bordj Bou Arreridj, Algeria.

Dr. Deboucha's research centers on Concrete Technology and Sustainable Construction, with deep expertise in structural design modeling, eco-materials, soil/fluid mechanics, and concrete chemistry. His work pioneers innovative techniques for eco-construction through mineral additive optimization and durability enhancement.

Analysis of his 2017-2022 publications reveals consistent focus on cementitious material behavior, particularly limestone filler/slag interactions in hydration processes and delayed ettringite formation. His research bridges fundamental material science with practical sustainable construction applications, emphasizing environmental performance metrics.

While no formal scientific awards are documented, Dr. Deboucha actively contributes to academic discourse as Guest Editor for MDPI's Energies journal (Special Issue on Ecofriendly Construction Materials) and serves as reviewer for Construction and Building Materials, Sustainability, and other high-impact journals.

He has supervised 6 Master's (M2) research projects and participated in scientific community building through AUGC conference organization at University of Nantes (2017). His laboratory work occurs within CESI's Engineering and Digital Tools team, which develops innovative construction methodologies and eco-material solutions through interdisciplinary collaboration.
