Rate My Professor John Moore

Moore's research specialization is structural health monitoring, with particular emphasis on timber beam bridges. He is the primary author of the article 'Structural Health Monitoring of Older Timber Bridge Girders Using Laser-Based Techniques,' published in 2013 in the Australian Journal of Multi-Disciplinary Engineering. This publication earned the team—consisting of John Moore, Dr. Saeed Mahini (lecturer in Civil Engineering at UNE), Mr. Rex Glencross-Grant (Technical Services Manager, MidCoast Council), and Dr. Robert Patterson (Technical Director, ForestWorks)—the 2015 R.W. Chapman Medal, awarded by the College of Structural Engineers, Engineers Australia, for the best academic journal article. The project leveraged Moore's prior engineering expertise. In addition, on April 2, 2014, he presented the webinar 'The Structural Health Monitoring of Timber Bridge Beams' for Forest & Wood Products Australia, sharing insights on assessment techniques for aging timber infrastructure.
