Chaekuk Na, PhD
Chaekuk Na is a Research Associate at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. He has experience in various topics, such as finite element analysis, structural health monitoring, concrete material and field testing. He is currently working in the research area of Structural Health Monitoring and Field Testing of bridges and Advanced Concrete Materials. He involved in several bridge on New Jersey Turnpike to evaluate the structural behavior as well as corrosive behavior, and to develop or update the technical Specifications for NJTA.
