Dr. N. Subramanian, is a Civil / structural consultant (currently based at Maryland, USA) with over 30 years of experience in Industry (including consultancy, research and teaching); former CEO of Computer Design Consultants, India, and Director of Computer Technological Institute, author of 200 technical papers and 25 books, is an asset for the field of structural engineering.
Academic :
Dr. Subramanian, did his initial schooling in Chennai. Later he joined Thiagarajar college of Engineering, Madurai for perusing his graduation in Civil Engineering. After graduation, he soon completed his Post Graduation in Structural Engineering from College of Engineering, Guindy, Chennai and then joined IIT-Madras (now Chennai), for doctoral degree. He did his Ph.D. under the guidance of Professor Prof. C. Ganapathy and topic for the research was “Analysis and behavior of steel frame folded plate roofs”. Then he was with IITM, as Post-doctoral Fellow & Project Associate for about two years. He also worked with Technical University of Berlin (with Prof. J. Lindner) and the Technical University of Bundeswehr, Munich (with Prof. Ch. Petersen) for two years as an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow.
Professional Experience :
After completing academic studies, Dr. Subramanian engaged himself in actual practice. After working for a brief period with College of Engineering, Guindy as Asst. Professor, he started his own consultancy in the year 1982. Consultant to several organizations like TANSI, Indian Telephone Industries Ltd, GTL Limited, Tamilnadu Housing Board, Hutch Limited, Tube Investment in India, E.C.C (I) Ltd. , Airtel Limited, Thapar waterbase Ltd. , T & B International Ltd., Riyadh; and AB Wibe , Sweden, his organization has executed the design of more than 650 projects, including several multi-storey concrete/steel buildings, Communication and microwave towers (designed more than 500 towers ranging in height from 20m to 120m), Pile and Tower foundations, Space frames, Sugar plant and aqua culture plants, Industrial structures (using hot rolled and cold rolled steel sections), schools, hotels, hospitals and some special structures.

We must thank Er Vivek for including this much awaited Biography of Dr N Subramanian sir ,
a living legend of structural Engg and our Top sefian in the Gems of Structural Engineering
section.
It is his sound knowledge together with sense of sharing and wholeheartedness which
distinguish him from other Gems.
Apart from his 200 papers and 25 Books , he has spent hours for SEFI with over 3500 posts
to resolve problems faced by engineers ,especially structural Ers, on a daily basis since
last 8-9 years here on sefi - - - a mega contribution to fraternity.
- - - - - -Certainly GOD gifted attitude for sharing
with appreciation and regards

Dear Er Vikramjeet,
Thank you for your kind words.
I hasten to state that your contribution on a daily basis, with more tinge towards practical aspects, is in no way inferior to my contribution. I always used to wonder how you are finding time to answer so many questions, considering the fact that you do not have internet facility at home.
May God Bless you and another Gem of SEFI Er Rangarajan!
I take this opportunity to thank Er Vivek for posting my profile here and Er. S.Adhikari for his kind words.
Regards & Best wishes,
Subramanian

Dear Er. Abhy_Vivek,
I add my thanks to you for posting details about achievements of Dr. Subramanian in the field of Structural Engineering . In a way I am also his student (who is not among 14000 Sefian's?) because I use his Steel Design book " Design Of Steel Structures " .
