Dr. Tatheer Zahra teaches civil engineering materials and the design of concrete and masonry structures to the undergraduates at QUT. She graduated with a civil engineering degree from NED University, Pakistan in 2012, lecturing at the same university until 2014. During her tenure, she worked on properties of cement and high-strength concrete in extreme weather conditions. She continued to pursue her PhD in structural engineering at QUT in 2014. Her research focused on developing strategies to improve the response of interlocking (mortarless concrete masonry) to resist gravity loads. After completing her PhD in 2017, Dr. Tatheer Zahra was appointed to QUT’s School of Civil Engineering. Her current research interests include 3D-printed concrete, 3D-printed high-energy-absorbing materials and composites, sustainable, and disaster-resilient building materials and structural masonry.
