A. Ata Kulaksizoglu, our General Manager, obtained his BSc in Civil Engineering from ITU/State University of New York at Buffalo in 2008. He obtained his MSc from Bogazici University in 2011 with the thesis titled "Seismic Performance Evaluation of Two-Storey Moment-Resisting Precast Concrete Industrial Structures", and his PhD in 2023 with his thesis "Analytical and Experimental Study of a Motion Amplification Damper for Improving Energy Dissipation Capacity of Precast Post-tensioned Structural Systems".
After working 3 years in Barka Engineering, the most prominent precast engineering firm in Turkey, he gave Reinforced Conrete and Structural Design courses in Turkish Military Academy. He joined ATAY Precast Construction Co. in 2012, gaining invaluable experience (over 100 projects) in analysis, design and construction of reinforced, precast, prestressed/post-tensioned concrete residential buildings, industrial buildings, stadium systems, bridge systems, facade panels, box culverts, tailor-made products.
In 2025, he restructured the company, renaming it KULTECH Engineering and Construction Technologies. The new strategy is to serve the needs of the modern society through advanced engineering of precast/prestressed structural systems, which are unrivalled particularly in industrial structures, where precast/prestressed concrete enables the designer to span long distances under very heavy loads.
Fluent in English, Python, OpenSEES, CSI SAP2000, US and Turkish standards, Kulaksizoglu has published articles in internationally acclaimed scientific journals and holds a patent about a novel seismic energy dissipation damper.
