Work history
Engineering Surveyor (Tunnel Surveyor)
Skanska
London, North Acton
2023.11 - Current
- Owned TBM guidance setup, continuous management, and operational oversight for accuracy.
- Set up survey control above ground and below ground for TBM guidance. (TS60,TS16)
- Carried out post-processing of Survey network and control works through Microsurvey Star*Net.
- Support cross-passages setup by enabling engineers to define tunnel features through Amberg tunnel design exports and set up of Control network for Engineers to utilise.
- Delivered levelling surveys above and below ground, plus neighbouring external sites governed by SCS. (LS15, DNA03)
- Recorded as-builts for temporary and permanent works using Leica RTC360 and MS60.
- Registered point cloud data using Register 360 and Cyclone Core processing.
- Completed further post-processing in Cyclone 3DR and issued detailed reports.
- Finished final tunnel works including walkways and cross-passage doors.
- Monitored works in cross passages and SCL.
- Attended meetings to discuss future planning and project preparations.
Tunnel Engineer
Ward and Burke
West Yorkshire
2023.07 - 2023.09
- Project tunnel engineer with a role of conducting control survey and network surveys for the pipe-jacking tunnel project to create sustainable sewage networks.
- I had adapted to a new guidance system method (VMT SLS system) where I had successfully guided the TBM in 2 separate drives; '605m' length with a '2m' diameter tunnel width, along with a 2nd drive of '191m' length with a '1.5m' width.
- Created multiple secondary use networks within 2 different reception shaft sites for effective setting out.
- Worked closely with VMT to transform coordinates and process survey data to adjust TBM geo-location underground.
- Setting out structures and pipe jacking frames for TBM launches.
Project/Tunnel Surveyor / TBM Navigator
Ferrovial
London
2022.09 - 2023.07
- Executed various setting out tasks with precision at Greenwich and Silver Town sites, enabling successful installations of load point sump units and manholes.
- Working with programs such as Civil 3D and Auto-CAD for the purposes of survey jobs, I had managed to design/link a surveying network throughout the Greenwich site and the silver town site. I also utilised these programs for setting out purposes as well.
- Successfully navigated the TBM; where I have full expertise and control over the navigation program “VMT”. I also took part in designing and applying the navigation alignment with ‘Amberg Tunnel software’ for the southbound tunnel, and northbound tunnel.
- I have recorded a complete As-Built of the tunnel along with specific sections of the tunnel, by scanning with the ‘Leica 3DR Scanner’, whilst utilising the software ‘Cyclone 3DR’ to process the data collected.
- I have conducted levelling/setting out/ monitoring/ traverse tasks, throughout the time I had in the project, whilst maintaining accuracy and precision. I have experience working with instruments such as LS10, the TS16, TS15, TS60, and Leica GPS, for monitoring/As built/setting out/ and many surveying purposes.
- Processed data from multiple survey jobs, completing full reduction for accurate coordinate correction.
- Attended meetings to discuss future planning and preparations for future tasks/ transitions of the project.
