  • Executed structural analysis for multiple steel shed and industrial projects using STAAD Pro, optimizing load distribution and reducing steel usage, which lowered project costs while ensuring strict IS code compliance.
  • Led a team of three structural engineers in delivering complex steel structure designs, achieving enhanced safety, efficiency, and measurable reductions in material consumption through advanced analysis techniques.
  • Served as team lead across multiple projects, managing client interactions, addressing technical requirements, and ensuring smooth communication to align stakeholder expectations with engineering solutions.
  • Designed and analyses several RCC structures for small-scale buildings up to G+5, ensuring durability, cost-effectiveness, and compliance with IS codes for residential and commercial applications.

PROJECT HIGHLIGHT

Platform Sliding Shed – JSL Kalinganagar, Odisha.

  • Designed and analyses a 650m × 30m industrial steel shed housing two 50-ton overhead EOT cranes, incorporating advanced load distribution strategies and dynamic impact considerations to ensure structural integrity and operational efficiency.
  • Outcome: Delivered optimized structural solutions using STAAD Pro, ensuring safe crane operation, reducing steel consumption by 10–12%, and achieving full IS code compliance. Realized significant cost savings while maintaining durability and operational efficiency.

Elevated Steel Water Tank – PHE, Assam

  • Scope: Designed and analysis of 70 nos of elevated steel water tanks with varying capacities from 10 KL to 100 KL, incorporating wind and seismic load considerations along with foundation design for safe long-term operation.
  • Outcome: Delivered optimized structural solutions using STAAD Pro, ensuring stability under all loads, full IS code compliance, and cost-effective material usage. Achieved enhanced safety margins and long-term durability for critical water storage infrastructure across multiple sites.

Coal Shed - Hirakud, Odisha

  • Scope: Performed structural design and analysis of a 60 m × 25 m coal storage shed with 15.6 m column spacing (c/c), applying IS 875 (Part III) wind load provisions and IS 1893 seismic/accidental load criteria. Developed foundation design in accordance with IS 456 to ensure code-compliant safety, serviceability, and long-term operational reliability under combined loading conditions.
  • Outcome: Delivered a structurally optimized, code-compliant coal storage shed capable of withstanding wind and accidental load combinations, ensuring long-term safety, serviceability, and operational reliability, with minimized maintenance and enhanced material efficiency.
