Niladri(Neil) Bardhan Email and Phone Number
With over 9 years of professional experience in Geotechnical Engineering in New Zealand, I possess extensive knowledge of geotechnical engineering design, theory, and its practical application on various sites. Additionally, I have a strong understanding of building legislation, including the Building Code, Auckland Unitary Plan, Auckland Council Code of Practice, and relevant New Zealand Standards, as well as the construction and design sector.Throughout my career, I have successfully managed the entire lifecycle of geotechnical projects in the residential building sector. This includes conducting cost estimates, preparing proposals, overseeing fieldwork, conducting detailed design work, writing comprehensive reports, and managing invoicing processes.Furthermore, I have had the privilege of being a valuable member of the temporary works design team, contributing to several infrastructure projects and tenders across New Zealand and the Pacific Islands. My expertise includes designing crane pads, analysing slope stability, designing sheet pile and coffer dams, developing bridge staging designs, and creating other retaining structures. I am well-versed in relevant codes such as NZTA's Bridge Manual, NZS 3604:2011, AS/NZS 1170.5, and MBIE Guidelines.In the realm of pile testing, I have expertise in conducting Pile Integrity Testing (PIT), performing Pile Dynamic Analysis (PDA), and assessing CPT and liquefaction. Additionally, I excel in foundation design, slope stability analysis, and retaining wall design for permanent works.Notable projects in my career include my involvement in the Waikato Expressway and Hamilton Bypass (City Edge Alliance) as well as the Peka Peka to Otaki Expressway, where I provided expertise in temporary retaining wall design, slope stability analysis, and crane platform design for bridges, culverts, and abutments. I also contributed to the Northern Interceptor project, designing trench shields and sheet pile/coffer dams for shafts. Furthermore, I played a key role in the Puhoi to Warkworth project (Fletcher Acciona), conducting Pile Integrity Testing (PIT) and analyzing the results. Lastly, I successfully designed pile and temporary staging for 5 bridges in Fiji, using a 100t crane.Overall, my comprehensive experience, deep understanding of geotechnical engineering, and successful involvement in a wide range of projects make me an outstanding candidate in the field.
