Denis Zastavni is Dr. Arch. Eng. and Professor in the Louvain research institute for Landscape, Architecture, Built environment [LAB] and at the Faculty of Architecture, Architectural Engineering and Urbanism [LOCI] of the Université Catholique de Louvain at Louvain-la-Neuve in Belgium since 2008. He has worked as a structural engineer and architect for over ten years. His PhD was on Robert Maillart’s design methods and won the Premio Edoardo Benvenuto in 2008. His main publications are on structural design, pedagogical approaches in teaching structure and technology, and Robert Maillart’s designs. His current research is focused on structural design approaches and tools, analysis of historical structures, history of the design of structures and constructions, graphic statics, timber constructions and on deepening his knowledge of Robert Maillart’s structural methods.

Denis Zastavni's work focuses on fundamental and applied research in relation to structural design and its associated dimensions:
- structural reliability according to design approaches
- structural robustness through plastic redistribution
- Integrative geometry-structure-mechanical efficiency-environmental balance approaches.
As a result of his research, he and his team have developed an expertise in :
- 3D graphic statics (vectorial approach)
- historical analyses of masonry structures
- hyperstatic problems managed by graphic statics
- timber structural design, particularly in relation to fire safety
- interactive structural analysis related to environmental assessment
- the design methods of Swiss engineer Robert Maillart [1872-1940] - Benvenuto Prize 2008.
His research on Maillart's approaches has been the subject of 18 publications intended to be collected in a monograph. His research has highlighted:
1/ the central role of Graphics Static as a tool for structural design, an approach of which Maillart would be the first promoter, that secure the structural arrangement and...
2/ a number of efficiency and methodological factors that lead to the mastery of structural design according to a deterministic approach. This framework allows then to develop obvious architectural qualities.
These results are now a set of theoretical foundations and represent the core of his teachings on structures.
The Research Team is active in the field of structural design and its methods:
- concrete and timber – historical studies – parametric modelling – the application of graphic statics.

Denis Zastavni is responsible for teaching on structures [LICAR-1701, LICAR-1702, LICAR-2703], materials [LICAR-1801, and until recently LGCIV-1031], design studio Atelier 5 [LICAR 1605] and project 1 Buildings in Civil Engineering [LGCIV-2011]. He places design approaches at the heart of his teachings. He teaches Arch. Eng. (Louvain-la-Neuve) by capitalising on the best of their engineering skills and their virtuosity in architectural design. He also teaches architectural design to construction engineers. He was responsible for construction technology teaching for 7 years.
In structures, he successively teaches fundamentals and analogical approaches such as graphic statics; design approaches in structures, in relation with parametric design; modeling of structures in interactive analysis and applied structural design.
Denis Zastavni est responsable d'enseignements sur les structures [LICAR-1701, LICAR-1702, LICAR-2703], les matériaux [LICAR-1801, et jusqu’il y a peu LGCIV-1031], du projet d'architecture Atelier 5 [LICAR 1605] et du project 1 Buildings en Génie Civil Environnemental [LGCIV-2011]. Il place les approches de conception au coeur de ses enseignements. Il enseigne aux ir. architectes (Louvain-la-Neuve) en tirant parti du meilleur de leurs compétences en ingénierie et de leur virtuosité en projet architectural. Il enseigne également le projet architectural aux ingénieurs en construction. Il a été responsable de l'enseignement de la technologie de la construction durant 7 ans.
En structures, il enseigne successivement les fondamentaux et les approches analogiques comme la statique graphique ; les approches de conception en structures, en lien avec la conception paramétrique ; la modélisation des ouvrages en analyse interactive et le design structural appliqué.
