About

Alireza Shojaei is a forward-thinking researcher at the intersection of construction engineering, robotics, and human factors. His work primarily focuses on wearable robotic technologies for injury prevention, autonomous systems for built environment management, and advanced control strategies for space-based construction. Shojaei’s most cited paper, “Industry Perception of the Suitability of Wearable Robot for Construction Work” (2023, 42 citations), addresses the critical problem of work-related musculoskeletal disorders among pipe workers. By evaluating back-support exoskeletons for forward bending tasks, he bridges the gap between robotic innovation and real-world construction safety. His earlier work on small unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) for built environment management (2018, 16 citations) demonstrates a commitment to practical, scalable automation, while his exploration of multi-agent AI control for space construction (2018) highlights his visionary approach to decision-making in extreme environments. With a growing citation record and a focus on translating robotic solutions into tangible industry impact, Shojaei is shaping the future of safer, smarter, and more autonomous construction practices—both on Earth and beyond.
