TECHNICAL SKILLS
Gained an advanced understanding in principles and application of Civil Engineering theories, methods, and practices with considerable experience in AutoCAD 2D/3D design.
Demonstrated skills in highway design by using AutoCad/Civil 3D applications and geometric highway design manual to prepare preliminary and detail design projects at Humber College.
Designed and analyzed horizontal and vertical alignments of highways, including the factors that influence the final positioning of roadways.
Designed preliminary and detail highway drawings in accordance with geometric highway design standards, safety factor, drainage, pavement design, super elevation and earth quantities. Proven ability to interpret engineering drawings and documents such as plans, profiles, cross sections, surveys and specifications.
Developed and demonstrated knowledge of Micro Survey in surveying projects during 1st and 2nd year of college.
Working experience with variety of software like AutoCAD-2D/3D, Civil3D, Revit, SewerGEM, Micro Survey and, Microsoft Office (Word, Spreadsheets, PowerPoint)
Demonstrated knowledge in structural design and operational aspects of Wastewater Collection, Treatment and Disposal.
WORK EXPERIENCE
Civil Field (QC) Technician (Part-Time) Aug 2019 – Dec 2019
SNC Lavalin Woodbridge, ON
Successfully executed test like air-test and slump test and cast cylinder for concrete for field testing as well in lab for concrete mix designs.
Facilitated an effective coring and testing of concrete and asphalt.
Actualized the testing and analysis of soil material by using standard and modified proctor density tests.
Verified target engineered materials and field compaction and optimum moisture content of soil by nuclear gauge-Standard Modified Proctor tests.
Performed Standard Proctor tests in laboratory to find ‘Optimum Water Content’ and ‘Maximum Density’ for controlling the field compaction of soil.
WORK EXPERIENCE (CONT’D)
Civil Field/Lab (QC) Technician (Full time) May 2019 - July 2019
Davroc Testing Laboratories Inc. Brampton, ON
Consistently confirmed the density of the soil in Trench back filling for sanitary and water main.
Recognized native ground to carry out placement of engineered fill and monitored compaction.
Assessed soil materials for their geotechnical applications.
Examined soil samples for proctor value, moisture content.
Carried out an efficient subgrade evaluation and proof rolling.
Participated fully in the examination of soil compaction in each layer at Road construction.
NOTABLE ENGINEERING PROJECTS EXECUTED
Design and Analysis of a Highway Segment Connecting two major parallel freeways
Successfully designed a new highway using AutoCAD from scratch by following the design standards outlined in a geometric design manual for Ontario.
Diligently scrutinized all of the components of the highway design and adhered to the expected technical calculations which helped yield amazing final highway design plans, profiles, and cross-sections.
Strictly considered a number of design domains which include: Horizontal and vertical alignment design, chainage equations, circular curve geometry, spiral curve computations, centerline profile, superelevation computations, roadbed design, earth quantities, and mass-haul.
Developed the final technical report which illustrated the procedure, analysis, and all-design standards that were taken into account to come up with the final highway design plan.
Design of storm and sewage collection system for the subdivision located in the City of Richmond Hill
Successfully designed grading/drainage plans, storm, and sanitary sewer pipe design and septic systems in SewerGEM and AutoCAD.
Calculated the Storm and Sanitary loads and applied it to the sewer layout system.
Executed a steady-state analysis to determine the hydraulic performance of proposed storm and sewer design.
AWARDS AND ACHIEVEMENTS
