Researcher biography
Dr David Lange joined the School of Civil Engineering at the University of Queensland in early 2018. Originally from the the UK, he has a Masters and a PhD, both from the University of Edinburgh. Following completion of his studies, he spent a number of years working in the UK developing fire safety strategies for a range of premises including laboratory and commercial facilities, and residential buildings; as well as conducting fire risk assessments and risk engineering projects in a range of industrail areas including HPR facilities. He then spent 6 years working as a senior research scientist for SP / RISE in Sweden, conducting research in a range of different areas such as fire resistance, facade fire safety, crisis management and infrastructure resilience. His work at the University of Queensland covers a broad range of areas related to fire safety.
David is a Registered Professional Engineering in Queensland (RPEQ), a registered engineer in New South Wales, as well as a Chartered Engineer (CPEng) at the member grade of Fellow with Engineers Australia (FIEAust). He is on the National Engineers Register (NER) in Australia and is an APEC Engineer and an International Professional Engineering registered in Australia (IntPE). He is also a member of the SFPE.
His current research projects are in the areas of:
- Fire safety of timber buildings
- Design of buildings for vertical fire spread
- Lithium Ion Battery fire safety
- Structural fire engineering
- Fire engineering design
- Application and development of risk analysis techniques in fire safety engineering
