MY SKILLS AND PROFESSION PROFILE
Structural engineer with solid experience in the design of steel and reinforced concrete structures, including buildings, supports, foundations, and heavy equipment steel framing. Proven expertise in connection design, welding details, and comprehensive structural detailing.
Managed the full project lifecycle, from concept development and planning through finite element (FEA) modeling, structural analysis, and code compliance verification. Supervised the preparation of executive drawings and conducted on-site inspections to ensure construction quality and adherence to design requirements.
Experienced in the review and interpretation of project reference documentation and in the preparation of technical deliverables in English, including design criteria, technical specifications, and calculation reports.
Proficient in English, with extensive use in international projects. Advanced user of finite element analysis software, particularly MASTERSAP (AMV) and SAP2000, for both mono and 2D structural elements, including reinforcement design based on stress contour analysis. Consistent use of 3D structural modeling for calculation since 1994.
Advanced proficiency in AutoCAD 2D for technical drafting and in Excel for structural calculations and engineering workflows.
Performed structural inspections and condition assessments of steel and reinforced concrete structures, including planning and management of load testing activities and preparation of related certification documentation.
In addition to standard Italian NTC2018, structural design with different regulatory codes including:
-
Eurocodes
-
