His research focuses on the mechanics and simulation of ductile and brittle materials, the behavior and performance of thin-walled structures, and system reliability quantification for civil infrastructure. Moen is also a licensed professional engineer. Notably, his PhD work on the behavior and design of thin-walled steel structures with perforations has been widely referenced, including in industry standards such as the <em>American Iron and Steel Institute North American Specification for the Design of Cold-Formed Steel Members<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>As a senior lecturer, Moen integrates practical experience gained from his involvement with engineering teams for several significant bridge projects. These include the design and construction of the Woodrow Wilson Bridge main spans, moveable spans, and V-piers. He completed his bachelor\u2019s and master\u2019s in civil engineering at the University of Virginia and a PhD in Civil Engineering at Johns Hopkins University in 2008.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1276","people","type-people","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Cristopher Moen - Department of Civil &amp; Systems Engineering<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/faculty\/cristopher-moen\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Cristopher Moen - Department of Civil &amp; Systems Engineering\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Cristopher Moen is a senior lecturer and director of the Master of Science in Civil Engineering program in the Department of Civil and Systems Engineering.
