Even during your last lecture, always trying to give us not only technical knowledge; but also, lessons in life. Your unique teaching style will be missed. No more deals where you always win, and we always got to do more work or stay longer in the classroom. It was worth it. Thank you for your time, patience, and advise.
You will never be forgotten Sir. I am pretty sure that during your 46 years at FIU you have positively impacted so many lives. I want to personally thank you for everything that you have done for me inside and outside of the classroom. I wish you the best Dr. Subbarao! Enjoy your retirement Sir! 👏👏👏👏

I'm sorry but this dingbat had a hand in the FIU bridge collapse with their completely and utterly useless rebranding of off-site precast construction as "accelerated bridge construction". FIU engineering department is a blight to engineers everywhere... and yet we're supposed to listen to them pontificate on Surfside? What a joke.
@sourav joy exactly, try to create something for yourself, something unique. Investing in the stock market only gets harder per day. It's now we reflect and act.
We if we can become an assert than our price automatically goes up in market spacex is a good initiative by elon. But why he did that I South African🇿🇦, as he belong to that place
This guy should be the last one in the galaxy to provide expert insight on any building structure. The FIU pedestrian bridge collapse and deaths happened on his watch.
Not fair to compare a building to a human medical checkup or car check up. A car lasts what, 5-10 years? A human maxes out at 80-100 years. Buildings however have an expectation of a longer lifespan. If we set the standard that they need frequent inspections then we are setting a sub standard on their lifespan. This will decrease the quality of buildings being built not increase them.
It appears to be a chain reaction structural failure with multiple factors. A report of a woman seeing the pool deck collapse seconds before building collapsed appears to be the first event, an engineering report from 2018 saying there was major structural damage to the slab under the pool deck and parking entry, spalling and rebar rusting on columns in parking garage, so you've got deteriorating structures getting weakened further possibly by construction next door, and jackhammering on the roof for a whole month, till the pool deck finally gave way setting off a domino effect throughout other weakened structural support columns.
Wrong. The concrete was spalling for years, there were inadequate repairs, water in the garage, and settling of the building long before construction started next door.
Steel girders don’t go in the ground, they do not make a foundation! The most important factor in this situation is the sea being so close, salt water and metal cause corrosion, every report has emphasized that concrete and metal must be protected from salt water intrusion. That is why maintenance, inspections and dedication to repairs on coastal buildings is so important!
Also because of the classification/codes of building construction. Typically, residential buildings only require up to a Class B of construction - which is reinforced concrete. However, office buildings will typically require a Class A of construction materials - which is a steel frame/girders either bolted, riveted, or welded together - this makes for uninterrupted long stretches of floor space without as many columns in the way - it also makes for a much stronger building.
Hello! Do you also make fiction movies ?? I have a a short film i would love to share with you; you could just check for "PLANETA ZEME" on our channel or perhaps send me a message to give you the link, Thanks !!!
Why don’t you place a link to the Dean’s message so we can quickly access it? I’ve been searching on the FIU Engineering site for a few minutes with no success. Just a friendly suggestion.
