      Jul 2000 - Feb 2003
      Structural Designer

      I have designed many concrete and steel structures up to 7 stories during this period using SAP90, ETABS and SAP2000 this involved calculations of loads and analysts using software and also design mostly using software, finally optimizing sections of members and generating drawings using AUTOCAD14 & 2000 About foundation design I used to model that by defining foundation as a continuous beam and modelling soil underneath that using spring supports and then design it as a normal concrete beam however some final controls had been done manually like punching and other issues Show less
