Dr. Jacob E Andersen has specialised in vibration control engineering in connection with structural and dynamic engineering problems. He has primarily been engaged with problems related to structural vibrations in large traffic infrastructure constructions induced by nature, trains, machine foundations, ship engines and other vibration sources. Solving such problems has given large experience in design of advanced structural monitoring systems, instrumentation and testing of large bridges.

Dr. Andersen has also experience in blasting works, e.g. demolition of buildings and general construction work.

Furthermore, Dr. Andersen is employed by COWI where he is Market Director and Project Director in COWI's Bridges International Business Unit. He has a wide experience as project manager of large, complex and multi-disciplinary construction and infrastructure projects, including project management, planning, co-ordination, negotiation with authorities, design, tender and construction follow-up.  At present, Jacob Egede Andersen is Project Director of one of COWI's largest construction projects – the design of the European Spallation Source (ESS) in Lund, Sweden. The project comprises a nuclear research facility designed in accordance with the requirements established by the Swedish radiation safety authorities including seismic design for 5 buildings inside the target station, 2 experimental halls and 4 adjacent buildings.

 

In 2016 Jacob Egede Andersen was Project Director for design for 48 WTG Monopile foundations in the North Sea in project area Rentel just outside Antwerp in Belgium and from 2013 – 2016 Project Manager for the Service Life design for the New NY Bridge (Tappan Zee Bridge) across the Hudson River in New York, USA.

Dr. Andersen has over 20 years of international experience were he has been involved in major projects in e.g. Austria, Belgium, Canada, China, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Sweden, Uganda, United Kingdom and USA.
