Lecturing Civil Engineering courses of Structural Engineering

Value engineering for all types of structures namely; reinforced concrete, pre-stressed concrete and steel structures with the aim of minimizing the cost through the reduction of materials used.

Modeling of structures using ETABS, SAFE and SAP2000.

Design of shoring of underground structures using ReWaRD (Retaining Wall Design Program)

Modeling and design of prestressed concrete floors, and structures using ADAPT.

Optimization of structural reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete elements. Using mathematical techniques to minimize the weight of reinforcement (steel) in the structure.

Retrofitting and upgrading of deteriorated structures using FRP (Fiber Reinforcement Plastics) technique along with other traditional methods. (optimum design)

Structural analysis and design of reinforced concrete and FRP hybrid systems.

Structural analysis and design of pre-cast concrete structures.
