Tasked with designing a brand new facility for casting all types of precast and pre-stressed products, to fit an existing plot of land. I obtained prices and sources for cranes, pre-fabricated buildings, foundation work, ancillary buildings, roadworks, lighting, power, plant and equipment, manpower, etc - everything that is required to set up from scratch.

I obtained prices and sources for cranes, pre-fabricated buildings, foundation work, ancillary buildings, roadworks, lighting, power, plant and equipment, manpower, etc - everything that is required to set up from scratch. Also, a Feasability Study was carried out to show to the Board of Directors and the banks that will provide the funding that the future potential was high. Unfortunately, lack of funding meant that the project never got off the ground. Later I worked on a huge project building a polyethylene plant in Jubail for Sadara (Saudi Aramco/Dow Chemical jv). I was tasked by both my company and the Client to ensure the manufacture of the precast elements were supplied to the required quality and on schedule. I liased closely with Sadara to ensure that all embedded items were procured ahead of their required date to ensure that the tight casting/delivery programme to site could be met. I was also heavily involved with the "tweaking" of the early design to ensure that all components could be incorporated to the satisfaction of the Client. The precast element of this project was deemed a success by Sadara. Show less
