Structural Analysis & Design:
- Review & Finalisation of general arrangement drawings and Design Basis Report
- Designing Structural Components: Develop designs for structures such as Intake, HRT, pressure shaft, surge shaft, powerhouses, machine foundation and other facilities specific to hydropower projects.
- Structural Analysis: Perform and guide the team in detailed structural analysis, considering factors such as water pressure, seismic loads, moving crane, wind load, and thermal effects.
- Material Selection: Choose appropriate materials (e.g., concrete, steel) based on durability, cost, and environmental conditions.
Structural Stability: Ensure the stability, strength, and durability of structures over the long term, particularly under extreme conditions like flooding and earthquakes
- Team guidance : Lead and mentor the structural design team, guiding junior team members in undertaking complex design assignments and delivering optimised solutions.
- Ensure compliance with applicable national and international design codes and standards (BIS, USACE, Eurocodes, ACI, ICOLD etc.).
- Perform and/or review independent design checks and approve structural designs and calculations.
- Drive value engineering and optimisation of designs for cost efficiency and constructability.
- Technical Evaluation & Review:
- Perform and review structural analysis, modeling, and design of hydropower infrastructure, including Intake, HRT, pressure shaft , surge shaft and powerhouses.
- Utilize Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software for structural simulations and stress analysis.
- Conduct and review dynamic and hydrodynamic analysis to assess the stability of structures.
- Review and validate designs prepared by consultants/ contractors and provide technical recommendations.
- Establish and implement QA/ QC procedures for structural design deliverables.
- Technical management with client
- Support Project Manager in providing Technical/ structural solutions
- Hydropower & Water Resource Projects:
- Assess the structural integrity of hydraulic tunnels, surge shafts, pressure shaft and Powerhouse structures.
- Collaborate with hydrologists, hydraulic engineers geotechnical, Electro-mechanical and Hydro-mechanical engineers to optimise project feasibility.
- Provide design support during construction, including resolution of site queries, RFIs, and design modifications.
- Reporting & Documentation:
- Prepare technical reports, structural calculations, and design justifications.
- Provide technical presentations and engage with stakeholders, including clients, contractors, and government agencies.
- Contribute to project planning, scheduling, and tracking of design deliverables.
