Summary

I am a skilled BIM Technician with over 15 years of experience working on projects across roads, bridges, rail, and buildings. I specialize in creating 3D models for various structural elements, including bridges and culverts. My expertise also includes preparing design drawings, rebar shop drawings, and bar bending schedules, all in strict compliance with standard codes. I have a proven track record of leading teams in the production of 2D drawings and have been involved in preparing submission drawings for Dubai authorities, such as DEWA and RTA, based on inputs from site engineers and consultants.

Projects Title - Sotra Link (Norway)

Project Description:
Involved in the modeling of complex concrete structures,

including bridges and buildings, for the Sotra Project in Norway. The

project utilized advanced computational modeling techniques like

Tekla and Grasshopper.

Responsibilities:

  • Developed 3D parametric models of bridges and buildings using

Grasshopper for procedural design and Tekla Structures for detailed

reinforcement and concrete modeling.

  • Collaborated with multidisciplinary teams to ensure structural

integrity, accuracy, and compliance with engineering standards.

  • Conducted model validation and quality control using BIMcollab to

identify and track design clashes and inconsistencies in the 3D

models.

Projects Title - Tanzania Lot 5 (Africa)

Project Description:

Contributed to the 3D modeling of concrete structures, including

bridges and culverts. This involved creating highly detailed and

precise models to support the design and construction phases,

ensuring structural integrity and ease of implementation.

Responsibilities:

  • Developed 3D parametric models of bridges and culverts using

Grasshopper and Tekla Structures.

  • Checked 3D models using Trimble Connect to ensure accuracy in

geometry and coordination across multiple teams, identifying and

resolving potential design issues early in the process.

  • Assisted the CAD team by exporting 2D model views and layouts

from the 3D models, ensuring they matched and were aligned with

the original 2D drawings for accuracy.


Projects Title - HS2 (UK)

Responsibilities:

  • Prepared design drawings and rebar shop drawings for various

structures such as culverts, bridges, and Manholes, ensuring
