David Kosnik joined ITI as an undergraduate student in 1999 and became a staff Research Engineer after graduation in 2003. He works on the design and implementation of Internet-enabled structural health monitoring (SHM) systems, particularly for long-term continuous remote monitoring of civil infrastructure. He is also involved in novel field applications of acoustic emission testing on steel bridges. Mr. Kosnik is a licensed professional engineer in Illinois and is trained in bridge
inspection techniques.
