Dr. Megally has over 29 years of research and analysis/design experience in reinforced and prestressed concrete structures. He is an expert in the field of seismic performance and serviceability of bridges and other structures, and served as a voting member of the ACI Committee 421 (Reinforced Concrete Slabs) and the ASBI (American Segmental Bridge Institute) Construction Practices Committee. Dr. Megally has also been the researcher/project manager for several research projects including monitoring of long-term deformations of the Confederation Bridge in Canada and seismic research projects for Caltrans. Dr. Megally has been project engineer on many bridge design and analysis projects, including segmental bridges, cable-stayed bridges and a suspension bridge.

Dr. Sikorsky joined Berkeley ITS after twenty-five years with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). Dr Sikorsky's field experience at Caltrans includes the retrofit of the I-280 Viaduct Retrofit Project in San Francisco damaged after the 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake, as well as construction of the West Approach to the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge. Following his assignments to Structure-Construction, he managed the Seismic Research Program. That Program was later merged into the Geotechnical-Structures Research Program, which he managed for fifteen years until his retirement. He has published over 40 journal articles and conference papers related to bridge design and maintenance. He also served as the Department Liaison to the Caltrans Seismic Advisory Board and continues to interact between Caltrans and the Board. He was an expert panel member for the Federal Highway Administration Long Term Bridge Performance Program and is one of the founding editors for Structural Health Monitoring. Among his research interests also include developing nondestructive damage evaluation methods to evaluate structural safety. More recently he has been involved in research investigating the application of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) to rehabilitate bridge decks, including post-tensioned box girder bridges. Currently he serves as the Administrative Director for the Ultra-High Performance Concrete Initiative (UHPCi) at Iowa State University.
