Adam completed a Master's degree, and worked under the supervision of Robert Tremblay. His project was to develop and validate design rules for steel buckling restrained braces (BRBs). Adam used finite element analysis techniques to study and characterize the stability and behaviour of steel core braces under cyclical plastic deformation. Adam also used experimental techniques on full scale seismic specimens to validate his results.
