Robert Jockwer

Associate Professor at Structural Engineering

Robert Jockwer is Assistant Professor in the field of Timber Structures at the Division of Structural Engineering in the research group Lighweight Structures at Chalmers. He has focused in his research on several fields including the reinforcement of timber structures by means of self-tapping screws, the structural behaviour of high performance connections in beech hardwood, the reliability of timber structures and connections, and the robustness of tall timber buildings. Robert is a member of the international committee for the revision of Eurocode 5 CEN TC250 SC5.
