I have experience in various types of steel and concrete building designs, supports and foundations, and other heavy equipment steel framing support with calculation of the connections, welding, and all the details. As Engineer I managed the whole path of the project, from setting and planning to the FEA modeling of the structure, calculations and verifications; from supervising of the executive drawings to field inspection of projects. I also gained experience in the analysis, understanding of project reference documents and development of accompanying documentation, also in English, such as design criteria, specifications and calculation notes.

My profile is complemented by a good knowledge of English, used in recent years for different jobs abroad, and daily use of different systems of automatic calculation with finite elements, especially software MASTERSAP by AMV (www.amv.it) for both single and two-dimensional elements; calculation of the reinforcement from the analysis of colored maps of stresses. I normally study my structures with 3D models since 1994. Excellent practice of Autocad 2D for drawings and Excel sheets for structural use.

Structural inspections/assessments of steel and reinforced concrete structures; identification and management of load tests and preparing the necessary test certificates.

In addition to standard Italian NTC2008, structural design with different regulatory codes including:

• Eurocodes

• ACI 318-05: ”Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and Commentary”

• British Standard BS 8110 Structural use of concrete

• UBC 1997

• Bael 91 rev.99 (France)

 

Ability to work in a team always trying to understand and solve problems to get the expected results; good management skills of staff available as Head of the technical department in Strong Block and sometime also in Biesse Consulting for the arrange the different aspects of the work. Good experience in the analysis of the customer's specifications and highlight the consequences on Structural Engineering; liaising with clients and other professionals such as architects, engineers and drafters in resolving arising problems and coordinating documents.
