PROJECTS:
AKA CONSULTANTS PVT LTD(Dec 2018- Present)

At AKA consultants, I am leading a team of 6 professionals, comprising of engineers and draftsman to deliver structural engineering solution for
a variety of Projects across India. The current role requires balance between timely deliveries of output with right technical inputs in the
drawings. I work from the concept stage preparing options and presentations to resolving the site RFIs while execution. During my tenure I
have been involved in projects with unique challenges. Some of which have been presented in brief below.

1. Civil Services Training Academy Assam

Project Description –The training academy is a 200Acre Educational Campus alongside Umrong reservoir in Dima hasao Assam, with
a total of 28 buildings covering an area of 87000 square metres. The project has a contour variation of about 6m in width which
proposes unique challenges in design and execution.
Roles & Responsibilities- 28 blocks including 2kms of jogging track were delivered in a time of 2 months. Designed for zone 5 and 50
kms wind speed, the design is based on the highest requirements put up by code. The project is currently in Construction stage. The
buildings are covered with Hip and Gable steel roofs varying from 9 -40m in spans.

2. Indore IT Park Phase 3- (link)

Project Description - The IT Park at Indore will be an iconic 11 storied structure in the Software SEZ of Indore. The current Building is
phase three of the SEZ. The building is conceptualized in PT flat slabs with landscaped terraces. With two basement and 11 stories the
structure is has a built-up area of 46000 square metres.
Roles & Responsibilities- Conceptualizing the PT flat slab shear core scheme for the IT office space. The service core is formed by
electrical rooms, servers and vertical transfer structures. The radial structure is divided by 2 expansion joints. The perimeter frames are
designed to resist 25 percent lateral load. The Foundation system consists of isolated footing with stitch raft on bottom. The basement
level is formed by grade slab resting on filling. The efficient system has resulted in major cost saving for the biggest IT Development in
Indore. The project is in tender/Construction Stage.

3. IIM Indore Extension Hostel, Academic & Faculty Housing-

Project Description - Indian Institute of Management Indore has proposed Group VIII Projects comprising of multi-storey hostel blocks,
academic building, faculty offices & apartments and other associated infrastructure at Rau campus, Indore. The project consists of
buildings with multi-storey Faculty and Hostel blocks up to 55 m height designed as per IS 16700. These buildings have been planned in
RC Shear wall and ductile beam concept. The wall is of 200mm thickness hence resulting in no offset and maximum area utilization. The
spiral and free-standing staircase are unique elements of design in the academic block.
Roles & Responsibilities- The project consists of various structures academic centre and hostels form the majority among them. I was
involved in concept preparation and presentation. The Academic building has PT Ribbed beam of 675 mm thickness for 15m span. The
free-standing staircase and circular staircase are stand out elements in the building. The hostels are G+16 midrise towers designed as
per IS 16700. The hostels utilise shear wall moment frame system to provide sleek structural system without any offset along walls. The
structural concept became a boon for the architectural planning.

4. 650 Bedded MCH Complex Rajkot

Project Description - Mother and child healthcare building at Janana campus is a 500 bedded in 12 stories with an extension capacity
to 650 beds accommodated in 16 stories. With a height above foundation level of 77m this will be the tallest healthcare facility in Gujarat
when completed to its full capacity along with SVP Hospital Ahmadabad. The building is designed for tall building criteria as per IS
16700 and applicable provisions of NDMA.
Roles & Responsibilities- The project implementation unit of Gujarat planned the tallest health care facility in Gujarat region. The
guidelines laid down demanded the structure to be designed as per NDMA hospital safety guidelines and IS 16700. The project was
conceptualized in RC ductile walls and SMRF Dual System. The building is designed for design basis earthquake.

PROJECTS:
JSW SEVERFIELD PVT LTD(June 2018-Dec 2018)

At JSSL I was Involved in design of long span Steel commercial and Industrial Structures. I performed analysis and design of Steel structures
and their connections. The projects involved steel design as per Euro and Indian code.
5. SATTVA KNOWLEDGE PARK
Project Description –Sattva is a 22000 MT structural steel project with 2 Towers 24 and 28 stories tall and a Podium of 13288m2. The
Podium is designed to cater for fire tender load with landscaping. The flooring is a mix of Structural steel Deck sheet and Flat slabs.
Roles & Responsibilities- I held responsibility for design of Tower 1 and Non-tower area of project. My scope included
Architectural coordination and preparation of structural schemes. Design of Isolated stitch raft foundation for podium and Raft
foundation for tower blocks. Design of base plates, shear fin connections and shear insert plate connection at slip formed lift wall. I was
also involved in design of Steel composite beams and columns. Etabs modelling and verification of codal criteria’s.

6. CONNECTION DESIGN- Connection design and preparation of fabrication drawings for Structural Steel. Design of Splices, Fin ,
End Plates, Base plates etc. Clash removal Using Tekla, Checking of fabrication drawings.

PROJECTS:

STERLING ENGINEERING CONSULTANCY SERVICES(July 2016-May 2018

My role in Sterling Engineering involved preparation of basic schemes as per client requirements and inputs from other agencies involved in the
projects. Presenting a detailed cost and time comparison for the various alternative schemes to help in informed decision-making process of the
client. Modelling of finalized structural system on ETABS and STAAD carrying out detailed analysis including dynamic seismic analysis and
nonlinear analysis. Using the analysis model to develop final design outputs using software such as SAFE, Excel and RCDC.developing
detailed drawings and their checking. Offering complete support to site execution team by resolving design based RFIs. A few of my important
projects and my contributions have been mentioned below.

7. Four Seasons Ph2(Schematic)

Project Description- - Four seasons phase two consists of a residential tower initially planned as 55 story residential complex being
converted into a 65 story with help of Steel. As per the requirement, Structural steel composite column with Outrigger system was
arrived as vertical and horizontal load carrying system. Steel serves function of reducing the self-weight of upper stories thereby
eliminating chances of overstressing the foundations due to addition in number of stories.
