PROFESSIONAL PROFILE

STRUCTURAL DESIGN

Developed structural design for multi -story commercial and residential buildings including

precast concrete exterior wall in compliance with the applicable building codes and industry

standards.

Provided expertise/advice in planning and design of projects regarding the control of potential

health and safety hazards. Enforced application of OHSA.

Conceived pre-cast concrete systems and structural steel alternatives for some of site-cast

concrete elements of structures to reduce project costs and schedule.

CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT

I mplemented a mission-oriented strategy for directing and coordinating human and material

resources through-out the construction phases of the project to achieve predetermined

objectives of scope, cost and quality.

I nvestigated project sites to correlate the plans with existing conditions to determine the

problems and opportunities at the site and to make the necessary professional decisions.

Developed an effective communications and mechanisms for resolving conflicts among the

various construction trades.

VALUE ENGINEERING ANALYSIS

Analyzed projects’ challenges. Generated alternatives and optimum solutions (such as precast

Concrete) that would achieve the essential function, reliably, at lower cost and longer life cycle.

Performed studies into improving safety, necessary repairs and alterations in buildings envelopes

and infrastructure to keep completed facilities in services.

Conducted ongoing research on the most up-to-date construction methods, equipment and

product trends on the international market and studied their impact on design.

Performed an assessment for the materials and items required for use in subject project.

STRUCTURAL REHABILITATION

I nvestigated and diagnosed symptoms of distress and rate of deterioration in building

envelope and for structures such as Arenas, Parking Structures, Schools and Industrial

Establishments.

Conducted analytical assessment and appropriate tests to identify the problems

developed and the most cost-efficient practical methods for upgrading or

rehabilitation.

Designed remedial measures for rehabilitation. Presented the findings and

methodologies of rehabilitation in written technical reports. Supervised and reviewed

on-site restoration/rehabilitation projects.
