Zoheb Faisal is a Ph.D. student at Texas A&M University, currently working as a student assistant. His research focuses on the durability of 3D-printed building materials, particularly Hempcrete and concrete, by developing advanced testing protocols.

Previously, he explored the effects of floods on the erodibility of lateritic soil slopes during his master’s and worked on ground improvement of clays using pre-stressed geogrids in his undergraduate studies. His research interests include 3D-printable construction materials, material durability, and innovative testing methods for emerging building technologies.
