Doing academic research such as soil improvement, Lightweight materials, environmentally sustainable materials. Furthermore, supervising different kinds of civil engineering projects

Supervising the execution process of G+4 of the 18-class school (RC structure) with all facilities (Canteen, Toilets, and small sports fields), the execution was containing the following steps

• Throwing about 0.3 m of the topsoil (west and organic soils) 
• Projecting out the exact place of each part of the project for the excavating 
• Determining the exact excavation depth of each building inside the project due to the nature of the land.
• Excavating the basement of the main building and the foundations of all other buildings. 
• Placing three layers of base course (Type B, PI=0) at the foundation level of each building and checking the field density (not less than 95%).
• Projecting out the exact place of each foundation of different buildings at the exact place and then checking the amount of reinforcement according to the design tables and structural drawings and then casting the reinforced concrete foundations (mat, single, and combined).
• Checking the framework condition and reinforcement ratios of all structural members (columns, beams) and slabs
• Constructing the partition walls from concrete block units and lightweight Thurmaston blocks and putting 5 cm of thermal insulation blocks at the external walls.
• Checking the sanitary system condition according to the design tables and civil drawings.
• Checking the placing condition of different types of tyles such as ceramic wall tiles (complete height, 1.2m height, and washing basins) and mosaic floor tyles (0.3*0.3).
• Checking the plastering condition (gypsum and cement).
• Completing all other required steps to complete the project (casting the required open yards, sports spaces, placing the final accessories of the sanitary system…. etc)

Constructing sewer systems from precast concrete pipes: 

• Assigning and checking the paths of pipelines 
• Doing the surveying process for the proposed paths, redrawing the profiles of each street, and determining the slope of the pipeline according to the land nature and requirements of the standard specifications.    
• Checking the excavation process for each path as required according to the nature of the ground.
• Doing the construction steps of the sewer system (placing a crushed stone at the base of the excavation, casting 0.1m of lean concrete, placing the concrete pipe units, closing the joints between pipes using 1:3 cement mortar, covering the pipes with lean concrete with at least 0.15cm, backfilling to the natural ground surface with clean and then last coarse with subbase coarse as required)

Got his master degree in Civil Engineering in 2013 at Hasan Kalouncu University/ Turkey. Published may international researches in high impact journal.
