Our note of thanks to acknowledge the services and support provided by Jitendra to UET Peshawar. Our collaboration was one of the largest research programs that involved the development of innovative strengthening techniques for stone and mud masonry constructions for school buildings and state-of-the-art shake table tests for seismic performance assessment of proposed techniques. This was undertaken under the Asian Development Bank funded project in support of post-earthquake reconstructions in Nepal. Our research team greatly appreciates the knowledge and experience Jitendra has imparted us with, and we look forward to our continued collaboration.
