• Familiar with Ontario design code (CSA) and handbooks such as ‘Wood Design Manual’, ‘Handbook of Steel Construction’ and ‘Concrete Design Handbook’

• Deal with complicated designing of wood & steel structures

CHINA RAILWAY CONSTRUCTION ENGINEERING DESIGN INSTITUTE,

Beijing China before 2002

• Designed over 40 structural engineering projects in industrial buildings, residential (civil) buildings and commercial buildings

• In industrial field, designed many R.C. & steel structural framing-work. Such as 1-storey~5-storey frame workshops, 10t or 20t boiler buildings. Including special structure members such as 12m R.C. crane beam, 33m steel girder truss etc.

For example,

project named ‘Baoji Rolling Stock Plant Extension’.( Included several 1 story workshop buildings and there are 2-10t~20t cranes in each workshop.) as structure engineer of the project in 1988

1st step : Preliminary Design

Go with other department engineers together to the site for investigation and getting existing building’s information and drawings. According to national building codes & local building codes (if there are), client’s requests and existing building structure style to set up structure model of new part and design briefly. Provide preliminary summary structural plan( if client needs) and design specification or manual. It’s including building structural style, materials (usually provide strength) and structural member sizes. Also list unusual design ideals.(If there are some special structural situations or members, such as huge machine foundation, bad soil condition and non-standard member etc.) this project with non-standard structural member 9m crane beam( generally it is 6m).

2nd step : Structural Exhaustive Design

There are 2 parts of design: Whole Building design and members design.

3rd step : making drawings

• Designed special structures such as 50t forge hammer machine foundation, 42m chimney stack, steel platform etc.

• In residential area, designed many R.C. frames & shear-wall structures such as 27-storey high building residence (shear wall), 2~3-storey villa residence( R.C. housings)

For example,

Project named ‘Bureau of Beijing Railway Staff Residential building’ (27 stories R.C. shear wall high building) as structure senior engineer in 2001

1. Built up suitable structural model According to the architectural drawings to suit real working condition.

2. According to building code chose design load (cover anticipated load at most) and combinations

3. Use appropriate computer program to analysis and adjust the model if it is necessary

4. Adjusted member sizes. Found out reasonable sizes

5. Tectonic design (node connection, opening, non-structural member)

6. Foundation design: choose reasonable style to suit soil condition.

• In commercial field, designed structures such as 9-storey hospital building (R.C. structures), 14-storey office building (R.C.BM-COL + R.C. shear wall), 20,000 seats stadium (R.C. frame & steel roof lattice frame). Accountant training centre(R.C. structure framing + some steel beams. also Including 70 deg. slope R.C. column)

For example,

Project named ‘shanghai Malu building’ (14 stories R.C. framing-shear wall) as structure engineer in 1992

This project’s special part is foundation design (over 50m deep sludge soil). Details will be told in interview if you are interested in
