About Me

Turning complex loads
into elegant structures.

I'm Akansha Subedi, a structural engineer based in Bangkok, Thailand, with a Master's degree in Structural Engineering from the Asian Institute of Technology.

My work spans steel-framed buildings, reinforced concrete structures, and bridge infrastructure, with a particular focus on performance-based design and advanced non-linear analysis. I've worked across Nepal, Thailand, and internationally — applying codes from ACI, Eurocode, ASCE, AISC, and local Thai and Nepali standards.

Whether it's a hexagonal steel residential building on Koh Phangan or a 93-storey RC skyscraper for my thesis, I approach every project with the same precision: rigorous analysis, optimised design, and clear documentation.
