I’ve worked on structural design projects with 3D printed concrete, 3D printed metal, and 3D printed glass…that’s pretty amazing! We’re in the early days of this new material production technology so here I provide an overview of the different materials/processes along with the projects I’ve worked on and some info on the current people and firms doing wonderful work! It will be fascinating to see how this technology develops!

If you’re looking into 3D printing material for a design or have concerns with an existing design do get in touch.

About Me:
Hi, I'm Paul Kassabian. I'm a structural engineer and a Principal at SGH in Boston, MA. Being a structural engineer is my fulltime job and I’ve also I taught full courses to graduate students at MIT for nine years, Harvard's Graduate School of Design (GSD) for five years and at RISD (Fall 2023). These are videos based on my structural design projects and years of teaching structures to students.

Some legal/professional stuff:
As of this video, I’m a:
• Licensed Structural/Civil Engineer in 26 US States including my home state of Massachusetts.
• Professional Engineer in British Columbia
• Chartered Structural Engineer in the UK (both ICE and IStructE)
So my full designations are: Paul E. Kassabian, P.E., P.Eng (BC), C.Eng MICE MIStructE
