SUMMARY

Structural Engineering Lead with long experience in EPC, Consultant and construction sectors. Leading projects at various sizes and stages of engineering studies. From front end “FEED”, detailed engineering, connection design, erection studies, rigging studies, stability during construction, construction technical support to field supervisory roles. Project ranging from small (few thousand dollars job) to complex mega projects in mining, oil sands, refineries, pipelines, commercial and residential projects including underground mining. I have good Project management experience such as scope definition, cost estimate, resource planning, schedule planning support, construction support and procurement support for multibillions projects.

I have sound expertise in Structural design, Finite element analysis (FEA), Modularization concepts, Modular steel structures, Construction support, Connection design, Rigging design, Stability studies and Concrete design including the use of software such as Staad Pro, S-Frame, S-Steel, S-Concrete, Dyna 6, SAP 2000, Tekla Structures, Strap, AutoCAD, Temp W, GeoStudio 2007, ETABS, Plaxis, Bluebeam, Naviswork S-math, and SMath. I have used Smart module transfer innovation for paperless communications.

Experience includes: Mining, Energy, oil and gas facilities, residential and commercial buildings, equipment foundations and support, material specifications; construction technical support and troubleshooting. I have been responsible for leading the design of Structural Steel modules, foundations (including piles and mat foundations), machine foundations, earth retaining structures, water retaining structures, pump houses, pipelines insulation, and thermal, stability, settlement, and geotechnical analyses, geotechnical solutions, soil investigations, soil testing, and concrete durability.Experience
