Summary

We need an experienced structural design engineer to design a concrete building. The building is approximately 36m x 28m and has a basement/underground parking area and 10 storeys (i.e. 11 storeys total). The foundation plan centerline drawing will be provided to you in AutoCAD to get you started. The floor plan is the same for all the 10 storeys except for the underground garage, so this plan applies to all the floors. However, the floor heights are different. The selected engineer must be capable of independently performing all the engineering design/analysis necessary to design the beams and columns and advise on additions or removal and the proper locations of new columns. You will not be expected to produce any details or drawings for this project however you will be expected to provide the cross sections drawings of the beams/columns showing their sizes and rebar used in them. Your work is primarily to model the structure in STAAD, input all the necessary loads, perform the required analyses, add or remove columns where necessary and size/design the beams and columns necessary to get it to work. You will need to be able to do these with little guidance Your work will be checked and approved by a licensed structural engineer, and you must be prepared to answer any questions by the senior structural engineer. Yor don’t need to worry about drafting on this project. You do not need a PE license. This project requires the use of STAAD Pro. You must have access to STAAD to be considered.
