Project details
As a Structural Engineer (Ghent University/Universiti Malaya background) with mastery in ETABS, Tekla, and ProtaStructure, I don't just build spreadsheets—I digitize engineering logic. Most "automation" gigs fail because the freelancer doesn't understand the physics. I bridge that gap.
What I offer:
I transform complex manual calculation workflows (Eurocode 2/3, MS 1553, BS 8110) into robust, error-proof Excel/VBA ecosystems. Whether you need a Wind Load Calculator, a Pre-stressed Slab Design tool, or a link between your Analysis Software and Material Take-offs (BBS), I provide professional-grade solutions.
Technical Features:
1. VBA & Power Query: Automated data extraction from ETABS/Tekla XML/CSV exports.
2. TQM Framework: Total Quality Management principles applied to minimize manual entry and human error.
3. Professional UI: Clean dashboards with protected calculation engines and dynamic charts.
4. Validation: Every sheet is benchmarked against hand-calcs for 100% CIDB/International compliance.
Stop wasting man-hours on repetitive data entry. Let’s build a technical asset that scales your consultancy’s output. High-precision engineering meets seamless automation.

About Joseph
Structural Engineer | VE/VM | ETABS |TEKLA | BIM | RC High-Rise Design
Alor Setar, Malaysia - 5:25 pm local time
Ensuring Total Quality.The most significant hidden cost in construction is over-engineering. I am a Civil & Structural Engineer specializing in Value Engineering (VE) and Total Quality Management (TQM) for residential, commercial, and high-rise structures. I do not just model buildings; I optimize them to reduce your capital expenditure (CAPEX) on steel and concrete without compromising safety or strict code compliance.
Based in Malaysia with advanced training in British Standards (BS) and Eurocodes, I provide top-tier structural analysis, detailing, and quality assurance to global developers, architects, and lead engineering firms.
Core Technical Arsenal
ETABS: High-Rise & Lateral Load Analysis (Wind/Seismic) | Optimized Structural Models & Calculation Reports
Tekla Structural Designer : Advanced RC Detailing | BIMClash-free Fabrication Drawings
AutoCAD : 2D Drafting & Schematic Design | Construction-ready Structural Drawings
The Academic & Analytical Edge (TQM Methodology)
I am currently advancing my expertise through a Master’s degree at Universiti Malaya, researching Total Quality Management (TQM) specifically within high-rise construction. I apply this rigorous academic framework directly to your projects.
For Clients, this means: Near-zero rework rates, clash detection before site deployment, and rigorous adherence to global quality benchmarks. Every structural member is analyzed through a multidimensional lens: structural integrity, constructability, and material cost-efficiency.
My Project Execution Framework (5W1H & VE Approach):
Analyze (What & Why): Review architectural drawings to identify load paths and immediate structural bottlenecks.
Optimize (How): Iterative modeling in ETABS/ProtaStructure to find the most cost-efficient cross-sections and reinforcement ratios (Value Engineering).
Detail (Who & Where): High-LOD modeling in Tekla for precise fabrication data, eliminating on-site conflicts.
Deliver (When): On-time submission of calculation reports, structural drawings, and material schedules.
Areas of Expertise:
High-Rise Structural Analysis & Design
Reinforced Concrete (RC) & Structural Steel Design
Value Engineering (VE) / Value Management (VM)
BIM Coordination & Clash Detection
Code Compliance (Eurocode, BS, ACI, GB, localized adaptations)
If you require an engineer who treats your project's budget as rigorously as its structural safety, invite me to your job or send a direct message. Let’s review your architectural plans and determine where we can optimize your structural costs today.
Consultant's Analysis on Profile Strategy:
Logic First: Clients do not care about your Master's degree unless it saves or makes them money. Framing your Universiti Malaya TQM research as a tool to achieve "near-zero rework" translates academic theory into immediate commercial value.
Contrarian Thinking: Most Upwork engineers bid by promising "fast delivery." You will bid by promising "reduced material costs through iterative modeling." This justifies a higher hourly rate necessary to reach your RM 15k monthly goal, as you are providing ROI, not an expense.
Market Positioning: Highlighting BS/Eurocode experience capitalizes on the UK, Middle East, and Australasian markets, which are the most lucrative on Upwork for your specific software stack.
Steps for completing your project
After purchasing the project, send requirements so Joseph can start the project.
Delivery time starts when Joseph receives requirements from you.
Joseph works on your project following the steps below.
Revisions may occur after the delivery date.
Technical Requirement Capture
We begin with a deep dive into your engineering logic. You provide the manual calculation flow (MS 1991, Eurocode 2/3, etc.), and I identify the variables, constants, and desired output formats.
Architecture & Logic Mapping
Before coding, I map the backend structure. This ensures the spreadsheet handles edge cases (e.g., non-standard beam spans) and maintains data integrity through protected formulas and named ranges.
