I gathered and analysed M11 bridge Inspection and Assessment reports from two Maintenance Area Contractors (MAC)s leading to production of an Existing Structures Report. I arranged access to the Highways Agency SMIS database. I investigated the appointment of a laser scanning survey specialist to undertake survey of structures with critical tolerances.
One of the engineering wonders of the £5.2bn project CTRL was completed in 2003, the Thurrock Viaduct, the link between the Thames tunnel and Rainham Marshes. Thurrock Viaduct is one of the most spectacular achievements of the CTRL, a new viaduct crossing over the existing railway lines, over the Dartford Tunnel exit ramps and underneath the Queen Elizabeth the 2nd Bridge. This 1 km long viaduct was constructed over a year.
CTRL Section 2's route passes underneath London Underground's Barking Station. I was a Team Member for a night-time track side inspection of underside of the station (a listed building) informing a structural assessment, leading to a settle mitigation design.
Network Rail commissioned AECOM to undertake a range of surveys in support of a programme to restore freight traffic clearances at 134 sites across the South East, Western, LNE and LNW Territories.
At Waterloo, Network Rail (NR) planned to incorporate redundant International Terminal platforms into the adjacent domestic station. The first phase converted a single platform (20) to accommodate domestic train services and provided access to it.
NR’s objective was to operate services from this platform by December 2008, keeping within the development budget set for them by the Department for Transport (DfT).
Seconded to Transport for London (TfL) Major Projects Business Unit's Design Management Engineering Team, on the West London Tram Project as an Assistant Engineer, my responsibilities included:
My first job was the analysis and minor elements of design of a 38km stretch of viaduct forming part of Taiwan’s High Speed Rail Link.
