Hamid Sadaatmanesh, PhD

Founder, CEO

Dr. Hamid Saadatmanesh is a Professor of Structural Engineering at the University of Arizona, and CEO of CarboShield, Inc. Dr. Saadatmanesh’s principal field of expertise is in the application of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials in civil engineering—in fact, he is often referred to as the “Carbon Father,” for his longtime work, research and thought leadership. He has pioneered many innovative applications of FRPs in construction and has published over two hundred technical articles on this subject—several of which have received awards from the American Society of Civil Engineers. He has also received a National Science Foundation Award for his work in the utilization of FRPs to repair and retrofit infrastructure. Since 1994, his companies have installed FRP materials in numerous projects including bridges, masonry and concrete buildings, large-diameter pipes, marine front structures, and more.
