• Coordinate with other design disciplines to integrate structural interfaces and optimize designs.

• Provide on-site technical analysis and design support informed by construction methods and procedures.

 Controlled Technical Scope

• Control structural technical criteria to maintain alignment with the project design.

• Participate in project tendering and bid evaluation to assess structural proposals.

• Review and manage contractor-developed detailed designs against the project plan and design.

• A bachelor's degree or above; familiarity with structural design standards, national, American, and British design codes, local structural approval and acceptance requirements in Southeast Asia, and structural materials and construction techniques used in Malaysia or Singapore.

Soft Skills
