- Prepare geotechnical design reports and provide recommendations for:
- Foundations
- Slopes
- Retaining structures
- Embankments
- Excavations
- Utilize geotechnical software (e.g., PLAXIS, GeoStudio, Rocscience Suite, AutoCAD) for soil-structure interaction modeling and analysis.
- Review and approve technical drawings, design documents, and construction methodologies.
- Provide on-site supervision and ensure construction compliance with geotechnical design.
- Conduct geotechnical risk assessments and suggest mitigation measures (e.g., landslides, subsidence, groundwater issues).
- Collaborate with civil, structural, and environmental teams to integrate geotechnical solutions into larger designs.
- Prepare cost estimates, BOQs, and technical specifications for geotechnical works.
- Ensure adherence to health, safety, environmental, and quality standards.
Qualifications & Experience
