Key job description items can be summarized as:

Performance of geotechnical analysis tasks and preparation of analysis documentsas part of training under supervision.

Review of geotechnical data and derivation of soil design parameters for relevant (shallow and deep) foundation analysis and design/ installation analysis

Undertaking preliminary and/or conceptual geotechnical analysis and special studies for tenders / capability and innovative concept assessment as part of training under supervision.

Development of analytical models both linear and non-linear, for foundation axial and lateral load/deflection response and pile soil interaction analysis, aimed for foundation and structure interaction analysis

Development of pile foundation design which may include pile for steel jacket structures, monopile for wind turbine generators, suction caissons, mud-mat design, and gravity base structures

Maintaining records in accordance with Department procedures and compiling and checking reports

Reviewing and checking project drawings

To become familiar with and to maintain awareness of Clients current requirements and where applicable, the latest Industry Codes and Standards including statutory rules and regulations.
