Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, University of Al-Mergheb, Libya Jul 2010
Professional Experience
Five Years of Experience in a Structural Design and Field Engineering:
Internship at DOTec Engineering Company in St. Charles Missouri Aug 2019 – Dec 2019
Analyzed, and designed some steel structures with concrete foundations, some connections, and anchors & drawings review.
Worked closely with different engineers such as mechanical, drafters, and project managers to complete and finish the required drawings and models.
Using some design codes such as ASCE, IBC, AISC, ACI, and NDS specifications.
Participating projects and clients in (DOTec):
Carports with Premier Carports Company, and USA Eagle Carports
Shelters with American Buildings Products and Tracom Inc.
Fiberglass Structures (Car Wash) with RM Products Company.

Graduate Research at the University of Idaho. Moscow, Idaho USA Jan 2018- Jul 2019
Worked on the finite element simulation of reinforced concrete high strength beams under various beam span to depth ratios that address a set of high-strength concrete beams that were studied in a laboratory to determine and evaluate the behavior of the flexural shear experimentally. The finite element method has been used to validate these experimental-data and develop it theoretically by using commercial software ABAQUS.
