Knowledge of Network Rail and Translink standards as well as the preparation of Form 1-3s at various GRIP stages.- Creating and checking drawings models for railway projects using 2D/ 3D CAD software such as MicroStation, OpenRail & Rhino. Experience working within a common data environment using ProjectWise and understanding of Network Rail CAD standards. - Digital skills including parametric design within Rhino/Grasshopper & VBA through MicroStation. Digital automation through Python and VBA for working with Geospatial data and automatic reporting/ document creation.

York, United Kingdom

- Project Design and Development: Played a pivotal role in the design phase of a new footbridge for the East West Rail Project during the GRIP 5 detailed design stage. Utilised SuperSuite Superstress to create and refine the footbridge model, adhering to Network Rail standard design procedures and leveraging existing GRIP 4 drawings.- Structural Analysis and Software Proficiency: Applied dead, wind, and live loads calculations using Excel to assess structural integrity. Created the SuperStress model with these parameters, and designed eight pile caps using Tekla Tedds software. Performed strength checks on all columns, accounting for deviations from standard designs to ensure robustness under worst-case scenarios.- Bridge Assessment Reporting: Responsible for conducting Level 1 railway assessments for 25 underline bridges across West Yorkshire. This involved a thorough review of structural conditions, leveraging historical data and current inspections, documented through detailed reports adhering to BCMI handbook standards.- Data Management and Technology Utilisation: Employed the Carrs system for reviewing past examinations and recent maintenance records. Developed proficiency in interpreting sectional appendixes and calculating precise track mileage using the Geo-Rinm viewer technology.
