Biography
Jacek Karpiesiuk is an Adjunct at the Institute of Civil Engineering at Warsaw University of Life Sciences, Poland. He received his PhD from the Bialystok University of Technology, Poland. Between 1990-1999, he was a teacher at the Building and Surveyor Technical School in Bialystok. In 1993, he obtained building qualifications as a construction manager and supervision inspector, and in 2001, a building expert qualification. From 2001, Dr. Eng. Karpiesiuk has been serving as a technical advisor in Eastern Europe, Bulgaria, Malta, and France to Elektra, a world manufacturer of electric floor heating and anti-icing systems. He is the creator of thermal insulation boards made for surface heating systems, such as Thermopanel, Waterpanel installed without screeds, and Thermopian, a pipe covering system. Dr. Eng. Karpiesiuk has participated in 7 scientific conferences as an invited speaker. He is the author of 63 scientific and technical articles, including one original monograph.
