Assistant General Manager- Structural Design

Job Summary

The Structural Design Engineer is responsible for creating and evaluating structural designs for real estate projects. This includes residential, commercial, and mixed-use developments. The role involves ensuring that designs are safe, cost-effective, and compliant with local building codes and regulations. The Structural Design Engineer collaborates with architects, contractors, and other engineers to deliver high-quality designs that meet the functional and aesthetic requirements of the project.

Key Responsibilities:

• Structural Design:
• Develop detailed structural designs for buildings, ensuring safety, functionality, and compliance with local and international standards.
• Perform calculations for load-bearing structures such as beams, columns, foundations, and slabs.
• Utilize industry-standard design software (e.g., AutoCAD, Revit, ETABS, SAP2000, STAAD Pro) to create and modify structural drawings.
• Project Coordination:
• Collaborate with architects, MEP engineers, and other project stakeholders to ensure integration of structural elements within the overall design.
• Provide technical support to the project team throughout the construction phase, ensuring the designs are implemented correctly.
• Conduct site visits to monitor construction progress and resolve any structural issues that arise.
• Code Compliance & Safety:
• Ensure that all designs comply with local building codes, safety regulations, and sustainability standards.
• Perform structural analysis to assess risks, including seismic, wind, and load-bearing assessments, ensuring all designs meet or exceed safety standards.
• Materials & Cost Estimation:
• Select appropriate materials for the project based on strength, durability, cost, and environmental considerations.
• Estimate the quantities of materials required for construction, working with procurement teams to manage costs.
• Quality Control & Documentation:
