While working at Strum Consulting, I contributed to the Goose Harbour Lake Wind Farm project led by Port Hawkesbury Paper Wind (PHP Wind). This green energy initiative aims to construct up to 31 wind turbines in Guysborough County, significantly reducing PHP's electrical power demand.

As part of a collaborative team, I played a key role in designing various crossing culverts for access roads. My responsibilities included determining the optimal locations for culverts based on road dips and slopes, ensuring efficient water flow across the roads. Using HYDROCAD, I performed stormwater modeling to determine 10-year flow rates from existing LIDAR contours. This analysis was crucial for creating culverts that effectively manage stormwater runoff, mitigate flooding risks, and ensure road durability. Some culverts incorporated fish passages to support local ecosystems.

I contributed to drafting AutoCAD drawings that detailed culvert dimensions, specifications, locations, and hydrological data used in the design process, such as the drainage area and 100-year flow rates. These drawings included topographic maps, elevation views, and cross-sections, ensuring a comprehensive visualization of the project's infrastructure. My careful attention to detail and adherence to Halifax Water Specifications ensured that the designs met environmental standards and technical precision.

Working with this dedicated team, we ensured that the infrastructure met environmental standards and technical precision, showcasing our commitment to sustainable practices and innovative engineering solutions.

During my final term of my Civil Engineering degree at Memorial University, I had the chance to work on a team for the design of a swimming pool facility. 

As part of the engineering team in this Capstone Project, my team worked on the design of a one-story swimming pool facility for Morrison Hershfield as client. Our team proposed and designed various roof structures for the building, including beams, Open Web Steel Joists, and a bracing system. We also designed the structural slab for the pool deck, the pool walls and foundations, as well as a retaining wall for the parking lot. The project involved creating plans for an Olympic-size pool, a splash pad, and changing rooms. It was a great experience collaborating with my teammates to deliver comprehensive structural engineering designs for this recreational facility.

I was in charge of design of Parts of the structures and Drafting of the Design Parts

In terms of Structural Design I was in charge of:

• the Structural Design of the Reinforced Concrete Pool Structure itself, accounting for various load factors such as Hydrostatic pressure and Soil Pressure

• the Concrete Slab Designs (On Grade & Suspended)

• Steel Structure Modelling and Design in S-FRAME.

Some renderings of the REVIT model used for the final capstone report.

The REVIT model renderings as shown below was created to the designed specifications and were then exported to AutoCAD to generate drafting models. Below is a quick floor plan walkthrough video of the Facility.
