Career Episode -1 Company : XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Task : Civil Engineer Period : July 2000 – March 2002

XXX is one of the ten largest and most successful architectural and engineering consultants in EGYPT. The head office is in Abu Dhabi, UAE and it has branches in Cairo, Alexandria, Al Ain, Dubai and Berlin. APG, Architectural and Planning Group, with combined offices operating internationally can call upon over 400 ( four hundred ) professional staff to service any project worldwide. Architectural and Planning Group are able to offer the full complement of comprehensive services such as architecture design, engineering design, urban planning design, landscape design, quality management, interior design, on-site inspection, on-site design liaison and maintenance inspections. In this career episode, I am detailing my work with the above company.

1.1 I was a fresh engineering graduate at the time of joining XXX. I had already

completed the 4 year full-time course in Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering. The first year of the course includes some papers in Mathematics, and also provides a basic knowledge of physical sciences underpinning Engineering. It also provides an overview of other disciplines of Engineering. The later years concentrate more particularly on the various aspects of Civil Engineering. I joined the above company in 2000. Initially there was a training period of two months . On the completion of my training period, which was my probation period as well, I was given the post of Civil Engineer and joined the company as a permanent employee.

1.2 As trainee engineer (July 2000 to September 2000) I got training as a site engineer. Initially I was responsible for supervising the contractor’s work for a small villa. I was reporting to a project engineer who was providing me with the necessary training and guidance.

1.3 During my tenure with the above organization as a Civil Engineer, I was responsible for planning, organizing and overseeing the construction and maintenance of various structures such as villa complexes, various building projects and renovation of different structures throughout Egypt. I also did the structural design for a group housing project, during my tenure with the above organization.

1.4 My work mainly involved the following:

• The overall supervision and execution of works. • Review and approval of shop drawings.

• Conceive, transfer and execute variation to designs, scopes and standard work methods.

• Preparing progress spread sheets, and updating MS Project schedules. • Project progress monitoring and submitting periodic reports to Project

Manager on a weekly and monthly basis.


• Implementing and monitoring QA/QC and safety procedures.

1.5 I am detailing below my work involving a villa complex in Alexandria, Egypt,

consisting of 24 villas, with a project value of approximately 29 million Egyptian Pounds.

1.6 I had an initial discussion with the client so as to determine project requirements. Then I established and monitored the construction work schedule.

1.7 On the site, I was responsible for supervision of site and maintaining a field diary to

make notes of the site activities. I conducted site meetings to discuss important issues to be taken into consideration. I ensured that the quality of work at the site was in compliance with the contract requirements that only approved materials are used in compliance with shop drawings and specifications. I used to liaise with the government authorities regarding the work execution, and follow up on approval.

1.8 I was also responsible of Reviewing the contractor’s transmittals for site activities.

After the completion of the structural work, I was responsible for all the finishing work, especially the doors, windows, balcony, aluminum and stainless steel work such as cladding, flashing, soffit, reynobond panels, gutters, etc.

1.9 I always follow the concept of value engineering, which involves providing necessary

functions at lowest cost, and the identification and elimination of unnecessary costs. 1.10 I used to submit detailed feasibility report for all projects. All the documentation

work used to be prepared in MS-OFFICE, and I achieved an excellent working knowledge in MS-OFFICE.

1.11 As mentioned above, I have also done the structural designing of a group

housing project. I had undergone a course in the structural analysis and design package, SAP 2000, earlier in the year and I was able to put it into practice. I developed a framing plan with approximate sizes of beams and columns. After drafting the framing plan, I discussed about the architectural views with the concerned architect. I then started modelling the skeletal structure with the sizes and dimensions as per architectural drawings. For the foundation of the structures, I designed a raft foundation using finite element method of designing. The model was created in space as per the design specifications.

1.12 The loading calculation is also an important part for analysis and design. Every

structure is subject to different loading. After completing the modelling part , I started the loading calculations for the structure. Along with dead and live loads, seismic loads also play a significant role. Though those loads depend on geography and location of the structure , design is always done on worst load combination. In some case, earthquake load pre-dominates, and in others, wind load. The project on hand


was in earthquake prone zone and it was a concrete structure, so earthquake loads and their combinations were the critical loads to be considered in the analysis and design.

1.13 After entering the loading data in the computer, the final step is the design

criteria. In this step, information regarding design code, type of reinforcement, concrete strength, whether earthquake reinforcement is required or not, have to be entered in the system. Once all the required data is fed, SAP 2000 does the analysis of the structures and the results are given.

1.14 After completion of the programmed run, the beams and columns are checked for

safety. If some members do not meet the safety criteria, I have to find out the reasons for this and make amendments accordingly. Then checking of bending moments, shear forces, and deflections for the whole structure and individual members are done.

1.15 After applying all the above mentioned checks, the design results are then

transferred to the draftsmen for preparation of detailed drawings. During the whole of the design process, I ensure that proper documentation is done.

1.16 I am very particular that all my work is professional and ethical. 1.17 During my tenure with Architectural and Planning Group (XXX), Cairo, Egypt, I

got a lot of practical experience regarding design of structures, site supervision and coordination. I also became familiar with various materials used such as : aluminum extrusions, aluminum alloy sheet , mild steel sections & sheet , stainless steel sheet , waterproofing membrane, various types of sealants, rockwool insulations, etc. Working with this company has taught me the practical aspects of Civil Engineering, and I have been able to successfully apply my theoretical knowledge in the work place.


Career Episode 2 Company : XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. Task : Civil Engineer Period : March 2002 – January 2003 XXX is a German specialty contractor with ten branches all over the world, Emphasizing on the integration of structure and cladding, servicing architecturally or technically significant construction projects in several countries throughout the world. XXX is one of the leading international Construction Companies. The Company interests cover special construction works such as space frames, steel structures, point-fixed glazing system, skylight system, glazed cable structures, etc. 2.1 I joined XXX Company as a Civil Engineer in the year 2002 . I have successfully

supervised and coordinated the construction of a number of major projects like airport terminal , malls, market and high rize building works in throughout the Middle East region , particularly in the U.A.E . In this career episode, I am detailing my work experience with the above-mentioned organization from March 2002 till January 2003. During this period, I was responsible for planning, organizing and overseeing the construction and maintenance of various structures for projects which were handled by me.

2.2 For each project awarded to our company after tendering, I had an initial discussion

with my director so as to determine project requirements. Then I established and monitored the construction work schedule. The total time and total labour required for the successful completion of the project is calculated. A progress chart is prepared before commencement of every project using MS-PROJECT.

2.3 I have to show the different samples of materials available to the client / consultant at

at each work site, for their approval. 2.4 Trade persons and labours’ efficiency depends on the availability of materials and

equipment in time. Each client or consultant approves different types/brands of materials. Exact calculation of required material is very necessary so that cost can be controlled, avoiding unnecessary stock of inventory. Avoiding the wastage of materials and the safety of manpower on the work sites is given priority in the organisation. To ensure this, I make random visits to the different project sites. I also discuss with the foremen regarding the progress of work, and clarify any doubts that they may have regarding the technical details of the project.

2.5 I prepared weekly and monthly progress reports of the projects, which I supervised. I

have to ensure that the technical specifications are met and technical data sheets are well prepared. I ensure that the quality of work at the site is in compliance with the specifications, and that only materials conforming to technical specifications are used.


I also carried out job cost analysis and monitored the project cost at regular intervals to avoid cost over runs.

2.6 When the work is in progress, at times the client / consultant may want some variations from the original scope of work. I have to prepare reports about the variations required and the cost involved, and these had to be submitted to the client / consultant to get their approval. The final scope of work is prepared after the completion of each project for submission to the Project Manager.

2.7 As per the Dubai government requirements, for every major construction work, Dubai

Municipality approval has to be obtained before starting each stage of the work. All the coordination with government authorities were handled to me .

2.8 I also submit design criteria, detailed calculation and feasibility reports for all

projects. All the documentation work is prepared in MS-OFFICE, and I achieved an excellent working knowledge in MS-OFFICE.

2.9 Some times, I also prepared the as- built drawing as I am proficient in AutoCAD. 2.10 Finally, when each project is over, commissioning reports have to be prepared , in

coordination with engineers from other disciplines and submitted to the management. The reports are reviewed and analysed for possible improvements which can be made in future projects.

I am giving below brief details about some of the projects I have handled with XXX Middle East:- 2.11 First project: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX, DUBAI, UAE (Project duration: March 2002-June 2002). This market consists of three curved space frames buildings which vary in dimensions (65 m* 45 m, 57 m * 57 m and 62 m * 48 m) and the height of these buildings in the centre is 11 m high from the ground.

2-11 (a) I got training in the company for one week in the head office. I was given a full idea about the space frames and the they taught me how to segregate the pipes and nodes and how to assemble them. 2-11 (b) The next week they send me to inspect the materials (pipes and nodes) while they were powder coated in the workshop. It is very important to mention that all the materials used are from Germany, except few items which can be fabricated in the UAE or in the Middle East and we do this only as per the client’s request in order to reduce the cost. 2-11 (c) By the end of the month I was deputed to the site, it was a completely desert area at the time of starting the project, about 25 km from the down town. I started to review the project drawing and discuss all the un-clear issues with our German supervisor. 2-11 (d) I established the work schedule and estimated how many labors we will need for the erection and I prepared a format for the manpower on site and the daily activities plus the target percentage of execution.


2-11 (e) Because of the loose sand , I discovered that it will be very difficult either to segregate or install the material for our workers , I took the decision to order two taks of fresh water to submerge the soil and then got the work site compacted by using a compactor . 2-11 (f) Then I start the preparation to receive the material on site I booked a mobile crane and stored the material near by our construction area. As soon as we stored the material we start the segregation of the pipes and the nodes so this will make it easier for us while the installation and we will save a lot of time. 2-11 (g) After we finished the segregation I, along with the German supervisor studied the method of statement of erection which had been sent to us from Germany. We completed the erection, assembling the entire space frame on the ground. At the same time we installed the steel embedment on the four columns. 2-11 (h) The final step( and the most amazing step) was lifting the structure by four cranes (each crane capacity was 220 ton), and the structure was held in the air for about 7 hours till the workers finished the installation of the lower part on each corner, which will finally be connected to the embedment on each side . 2-11 (i) I remember that we had an accident by the end of the day when one crane boom hit one pipe and damaged it while moving. I immediately informed our technical department, they then checked the design calculation and came back to me, informing me that it could be replaced later on and this will not affect the structural stability of the building.

2.12 Second project: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Headquarters, ( I worked with the project from June 2002- July 2002.) NBAD New headquarters tower has been designed by a joint venture between Arch. Carlos Ott & APG, to be the flagship headquarters for one the largest banking corporations in the Middle East. The construction has been completed in the year 2003, as the tallest building in Abu Dhabi. The tower of 200 meters height comprises of 40 floors, built with the most advanced technology and methods of construction. The building design concept is based upon triangulated plan forms producing contrapuntal 3-dimentional solids and voids in distinctive contrasting juxtaposition. The building has unique architecture features including an inverted solid granite-faced pyramid at street level and a prismatic glass-faced pyramid at roof level; both pyramids are formed by the use of three – dimensional tensile space frames.

2-12 (a) I spent 2 months in this project mainly supervising our erection team and controlling the Subcontractors on site. I prepared daily, weekly and monthly progress reports regarding the work going on at the site, and submitted the same to the project manager. 2-12 (b) I inspected all the materials used in the construction, including the glass panels. In case of broken glass panels, I had to inspect the broken glass and determine the reason that led to the breakage , write a report indicated the reference number of the panel , location , how it was broken and due to whose fault, and take steps to prevent the glass breaking in the future .


2-12 (c) I was in-charge of complete coordination on the project site with the consultant, main contractor, and subcontractors. I also conducted daily meetings with our subcontractors regarding the day to day work and to solve any outstanding issues.

2.13 Third project: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX (Project duration: July 2002- Jan 2003.) I am very proud that I was able to play a role in the construction of Cairo international airport, as it is one of the most distinguished structures I had ever done. Also I am very proud that my management trusted my ability to work alone, they had sent me to Cairo for six months to take care for this project, I was the only one sent from the company, except for one German supervisor with me. I really felt self-confidant and proud when I finished this project.

2-13 (a) my responsibilities there were many and varied; generally I was responsible

for every thing related to our project in Egypt such as: Inspecting the glass which had been fabricated in Sharjah, UAE, and

dispatching to Egypt and reject any glass which did not confirm with the technical specifications.

Getting the permissions cards from the airport authority for my subcontractor’s labors, so as to allow them into the airport.

Explain to the workers what has to be done each day. Receiving the material in the airport coming from Germany and UAE and

store it carefully in our storage yard in the airport. Coordinating and interacting with the consultant, main contractor and other

subcontractors for project progress. Contacting the local suppliers regarding local materials used and tools and

equipment. Using AutoCAD to draw the flashings we need in the project. Ordering and inspecting the material which had been fabricated at site such as

the alum and stainless steel flashings, bolts, screws, silicone, washers and routes.

2-13 (b) The project involved three major structures: façade, skylight and canopy.

The façade structure 2.13(c) This structure is 110m in length, and consists of 238 insulated glass panels (39.14cm thickness) fixed using the point –fixed (spider) system. The glass dimensions varied, but most of the façade glasses were 3.0 m * 1.90 m. We started our work on site by doing the survey work so as to be sure of our embedment locations though it was not in our scope of work, we did it for double checking . Later we installed the embedments in the locations required . We then started the steel erection using both mobile and tower cranes , we also installed the arches and posts. The next stage was fixing the spiders (glass holders) and doing the alignment using the spirit level and the string line. 2-13 (d) We were supposed to paint the steel posts (columns) by a top coat before fixing the spiders but due to the delay of the subcontractor in charge of painting


works, I took the decision to start fixing the spiders and then later on to cover them by plastic sheets as soon as they will start the painting step. 2-13 (e) The next step was starting the glass installation , I gave instructions to hang the glass sucker together with electrical wench on the highest point of the steel so we can fix the glass easily , the workers started to fix the glass from bottom to top using our tools such as rotules, washers, bolts and nuts . 2-13 (f) After we finished one portion we started doing the alignment for the glass, then we used the torque wrench to tighten the spider and the bolts and nuts of the rotules. 2-13 (g) Then the gasket (sipro profile) was fixed between the glass panels . The vertical gasket was fixed from top to bottom and the horizontal gasket had to be cut at each joint with vertical gasket . 2-13 (h) I then instructed my workers to clean the glass edges before applying the silicone. It was cleaned, and the packing rods were fixed before applying the silicone. For cleaning we used R-40 and we used silicone type DOW CORNING 797. 2-13 (i) The last stage was to fix the stainless steel and aluminum flashing between the glass and the floor , the material was already ordered and had been fabricated in Egypt. While fixing them, around five glass panels were broken. When I inspected the glass panels, I found the breakage had always started from the glass edges. Initially, I thought this is due to the careless handling of the glass, but latter on I discovered that the reason for the breakage related to the design of the flashing itself. It was in a ‘U’ shaped section and it should have been fixed by sliding it under the glass panel , but due to the glass weight and slope there was a deflection on the middle of the panels for around 3 mm which was an obstacle to the fixation of the flashing . I contacted my technical department and I explained the matter to my director , they replied back that I can change the flashing as per the site conditions, so I drew a new flashing in the AutoCAD programme, the flashing consisted of 2 ‘L’ angles to be glued to the glass edge .

The skylight structure 2.13(j) There were 8 skylight lines on the top roof of the terminal hall, these lines are 1.5 m width * 20 m length. Each sky light line consists of 15 laminated, ceramic fritted and curved glass panels. There are 2 glass panels on each line working as a smoke vent ( electrical operated ) . For the installation and fixing of the glazing and sheet metal cladding, the XXX Vario Clip system was used . The XXX vario-clip is a preformed elastomic mechanical sealing system used to attach panels , usually of glass , to a supporting metal frame work . It is conceived for use by those conversant with state –of-the- art technology in glazing and curtain walling. The XXX Vario Clip solely consists of non-corrosive materials. Bearing coping profiles and spacers are made of EPDM material ( ethylene-propylene-rubber ), manufactured and tested according to DIN 7863. Aluminum retainers are made of alloy ,natured colored . self taping screws are made of stainless steel . 2-13 (k) First prepared the components of the vario clip were prepared on site by cutting them to size according to the drawing using special tools . 2-13 (l) Then they were fixed on the steel frame from bottom to top as follows:


• Primary bearing strips in direction of inclination. • Secondary bearing strips right - angled to inclination. • Bearing strips are fixed onto the structure (steel) with aluminum retainers

which are fastened by stainless steel screws at a distance of approx 30 cm . • Coping profile to be installed ( primary & secondary ) . • After the coping profiles are clipped into the aluminum retainers a spacer –

inserted by a special tool – provides the necessary sealing pressure and impermeability .

• Finally the installation of the aluminum caps.

The Canopy structure This consists of a 25 m * 15 m curved glass roof, the glass panels were 88 in number, and laminated (17.14 mm) and the point –fixed (spider) system was used for this structure.

2.14 Working with this company, I have enhanced my project management skills to a great extent. It has developed my strategic thinking ability and sharpened my human resource management skills and customer focus capability. It has also given me a good knowledge of the UAE construction industry.


Career Episode 3 Company : XXXXXXXXXXXXXXx, Dubai, U.A.E. Task : Civil Engineer Period : January 2003 till March 2005 Working for the three years in XXX Middle East, Dubai, UAE, I got very good exposure to the planning, organizing and overseeing the construction and maintenance of various Civil Engineering structures. In this career episode, I am detailing my work experience with the above-mentioned organization with regards to the latest project I have handled: The XXXXXXXXXXXXXx project, Dubai, UAE. 3.1 XXXXXXXX – which opened for business in 1992 and is described by its owner,

Majid Saif Al Ghurair, as 'a high-end mall, a mall for serious shoppers' – is a destination shopping center, a place where Dubai residents congregate . Burjuman's expansion will clearly add to the mall's appeal. The mix of prestigious brands – including a flagship Saks Fifth Avenue (SFA) department store, more than 300 other shops, restaurants, cafés and a multi-screen complex – will undoubtedly attract hordes of upscale clients. The work undertaken by XXX in the XXXXX project involves a contract value of AED 51 million.

3.2 I was appointed as the Engineer- in - charge for the above work and was responsible

for the following: Compiling initial scope of work, including calculation of quantities of materials

involved for the project. Drafts and interprets specifications, drawings, and determines construction

methods and procedures. Planning and co-coordinating the work going on at project sites, organizing and

directing site labor and the delivery of construction materials, plant and equipment.

Coordinating and interacting with the consultants, main contractor and sub-contractors for project progress.

Establishes detailed programs for the coordination of site activities, and complete coordination and supervision of daily activities at the work sites.

Preparation of job cost analysis and monitoring the project cost at regular intervals to avoid cost over-runs.

Ensuring that quality of work and safety requirements are met. Conduct monitoring and control non-confirming material and ensure compliance

of executed works to approved drawings and submittals. Coordinating with other Engineers and Architects. Taking site measurements. Checking and certifying the satisfactory completion of work at the site, and

responsible for the closure of Job Site Instruction (JSI) issued by consultant.


3.3 Once the project had been awarded to MERO, I had a detailed discussion with our

Director, so as to be clear about the project requirements. I then prepared a progress chart before the commencement of the site work using MS PROJECT.

3.4 When the work is in progress, the consultant required various variations from the

original scope of work. I then prepared reports about the variations required and the cost involved, and these were submitted to the consultants to get their approval.

3.5 For efficient control of the work at site, I also prepare a daily progress report, for

comparison with the scheduled progress of work. I can then take suitable measures to ensure that the site work is completed in time, in cases where there has been a lag. I ensure that the quality of work at the site is in compliance with the specifications, and that only materials conforming to technical specifications are used. I have to ensure that the technical specifications are met and technical data sheets are well prepared.

3.6 The above mentioned project involves the following: South Village, Pavilion Garden,

Cube, Drum, Tower Lobby, Tower Canopy and Roof Lights. A brief description of the work involved for some of these is given below.

3.7 The South Village consists of a glass covered conical roof shell structure of 70m

length, 13m width and a height of 17m in relation to the level from which it starts. The main components are a folded steel roof structure consisting of a tubular space-frame like steel structure which rests on 16 columns(tripods), a glass shell consisting of approximately 490 glass panes of mostly individual shapes and attached to the roof structure by means of point-fixing , and sun shields are provided for sun protection for the whole structure.

The south village steel erection sequence: Scaffold as per approved drawings is erected. Erection of pre-assembled tripods by using the crane and positioned on the

level, embeds already surveyed and tack welded for stability. The ring beam segments are lifted and placed in position on the special

scaffolds. The ring beam members were set in with the arcs and tack welded. After assembly and survey of 4 arcs full welding of ring beam is carried out

followed with testing and paint touch up.

The south village glass erection sequence: Installing the spiders (fixing to steel-structure). Fixing the rotules to the glass panes (in general 4 rotules per pane), which is done before the glass is lifted onto the roof. Fixing the electrical glass sucker device to the glass pane.


Lifting the glass pane to its location on the roof. Threading the rotule bolts into the spider bore-holes. Adjusting and aligning of pane in relation to its adjacent panes (the glass layout plan also indicates which of the different rotules of each pane has to be a rigid or a full or a semi-sliding fixation to allow for thermal movement). Before starting the sealing activities the joints between the glass panes have to be cleaned in order to secure proper adhesion of the sealant to the glass face. In the first step, the backing profile is pressed into the joint from the inner side of the roof. The sealant (Dow Corning 797) then is squeezed against this profile from outside.

3.8 The Pavilion Garden is divided into 2 roof sections- the big roof is an arched glass

roof of 99m length, 51m width and 13m height, and the small roof is 26m in length, 35m width and 11m height. I will describe the big roof erection sequence below:

The big roof main components are: - Steel columns - Support ball ends with six-branched diagonals (spikes) - Primary structure: -main girders – HEA 500 curved -cross beams with diagonals - Secondary structure: -(section U profiles + square hollow profiles) - Cable bracings - Glazing - Sheet metal cladding (dark cladding) The Pavilion Garden steel & glazing erection sequence: Lift all the pieces of the main girder and rest them on scaffold towers already

erected to proper lines and levels. Connect cross beams , which are bolted to the main girders. Connect the diagonals . Connect spikes to roof frame and the spike support on concrete columns. Weld the joints between the main girders . On completion of welding, it shall be inspected and paint touched up. After completion of the steel structure, the cable are installed and tensioned . On completion of tensioning the structure is stable on its own and scaffolding

towers can be released . After installation of secondary structure, steel decking, insulation, water proofing,

etc. were carried out. Glazing works carried out and we used the Vario Clip system for the glass

installation. Summary description of the Pavilion Garden Roofing System:

a. DECKING Inverted insulated deck consisting of 0.70 mm thick galvanized steel polyester coated


RAL 9007 trapezoidal corrugated profile . b. INSULATION 100 mm thick rigid polyurethane insulation boards, formed in the shape of the corrugated deck and laid loosely at site . The insulation boards are topped with craft paper liner sheet, compatible to receive hypalon water proofing membrane. c. WATER PROOFING The roofing shall be finished with a waterproofing layer of 1.50 mm thick EPDM membrane of minimum 6m widths, mechanically fastened to the roofing. d. COMPOSITE PANEL An aluminium composite material (Reynobond) used as exterior cladding of the pavilion roof.

3.9 The Tower lobby façade consists of three façade parts, the principal structure of the three façades are the same. The façade consists of point supported glass panels. The general glass panel dimension is 2000mm * 2900 mm.

There are vertical steel spiral strand, d = 20mm in distance of ca. 3000mm. these cables carry the dead load of the glazing and are fixed at concrete slabs at the top and the bottom .the horizontal wind loads are carried by steel brackets fixed supported at concrete columns .

The tower lobby steel & glass erection sequence: Step 1 Alignment/survey of all embeds. Step 2 Fixing anchor plates/bolts on columns and slabs. Step 3 Fixing of brackets in to the oval/circular columns. These brackets

are lifted to the position by electrical winches fixed at top. Step 4 Alignment of brackets and welding it to the embeds. Step 5 Welding inspection and topcoat painting of the brackets. Step 6 Fixing of cables from support to support. Step 7 Pre-tension of the cables (refer to Annexure #4). Step 8 Fixing of spiders assembly on cables. Step 9 Installation of glazing panels as below: The erection of the glazing is identical for all facades and is

completely executed from the scaffolding. The individual glass panes will be lifted with the electric cable winch and a glass suction device and then installed.


Step 10 Sealing as below:
