MoreThe University Archives Reference Collection, Biographical Files contain clippings, University publications, copies of photographs, and other materials documenting faculty, staff, and alumni of North Carolina State University. This is an artificial collection, and is updated and maintained by Special Collections staff. North Carolina State University was established in 1887 as the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts (A&M College). The College opened in 1889 with one building - the current Holladay Hall - six faculty, and courses in the agricultural and mechanical arts, adding a curriculum in applied science in 1893. By the turn of the century the College had grown to some half dozen buildings, about 300 students, and had begun to diversify its curricula. In 1917, the institution's name was changed to North Carolina State College of Agriculture and Engineering (State College). In 1931 the College greatly reworked its curricula as it underwent consolidation. Along with North Carolina College for Women and the University of North Carolina, it became a part of the Consolidated University of North Carolina,. North Carolina State is now one of the constituent institutions of the multi-campus University of North Carolina system, having received university status, and, after some controversy, assumed its current name in 1965. As of 2007, N.C. State had a student body of nearly 30,000, nearly two thousand faculty, and research and program expenditures of over $440 million.

MoreThis collection contains research and project material created by Paul Zia. Included are the materials for the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse move, work with corrosion resistant alloy steel (MMFX) and reinforced concrete, the planning for the University of Tennessee Arena repair, the Crystal River Nuclear Plant containment investigation, the American Concrete Institute (ACI) reports, conference and workshop proceedings, and instructional materials from Zia's time as a professor at North Carolina State University. Topics covered include Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, reinforced concrete, the Crystal River Nuclear Plant, the University of Tennessee Arena, North Carolina State University faculty, civil engineering, and the North Carolina State University Department of Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering. The materials span the time period 1953-2018, with recent articles and displays reflecting on the success of the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse move. For over 50 years, Paul Zia taught, researched, and consulted in many areas of concrete materials, reinforced and prestressed concrete structures, and construction. Zia joined the civil engineering faculty at North Carolina State University in 1961. He advised more than 60 masters and doctoral students at North Carolina State University. He conducted sponsored research on many aspects of prestressed and reinforced concrete, including torsion and shear, bond and development length, loss of prestress, applications of high performance and high strength concrete, self-consolidating concrete, jointless bridge deck, and cracking in large prestressed concrete girders. His studies also included fatigue strength of cracked prestressed concrete girders, assessment of high performance concrete bridges, development of non-destructive test method for measuring air permeability of concrete, the use of self-consolodating concrete in highway structures, and the application of corrosion-resistant high-strength MMFX streel for concrete structures, and structural applications of new proprietary materials called Grancrete and Elimix Admixture.
