Construction Engineer
CurrentAs a construction engineer for KNA, I work with project staff to create quality construction plans & calculation packages for bridge construction tasks include girder erection, demolition, temporary earthwork shoring & cofferdams, formwork, falsework, bridge jacking, and other associated tasks. I use and apply many aspects various structural design codes (AISC, AASHTO, NDS, ASCE-7, and ACI), different analysis software packages (RISA, Civil-Tech Shoring Suite, SPW911, Mathcad, and Excel), and different construction materials (soils, wood, steel, reinforced concrete, and analysis of composite materials). A quality construction design allows input from all levels of a project team, is safe & practical to construct, cost-effective & innovative, and is supported by sound calculations and plans that are easy to follow. I strive to work efficiently on each task and support designs as required from conception through the completion of construction.
