Profile Summary:

REFERENCE:
• More than 06 years of extensive experience in Lab & Field Testing i.e. Soil,
Aggregate, Concrete, Asphalt and NDT.
Will be furnished on
demand.
Countries of Work Experience : Pakistan & Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

Total Professional Experience : +06 Years (ARAMCO Approved

Laboratory Supervisor CTTA – 0655)

KEY QUALIFICATION:

Practicing Technical Engineer/Deputy Lab Manager, Field Geologist, QA/QC,

Material Inspector, Field of Lab. Supervisor and Lab Technician.

I have also worked as a Technical Engineer for the Laboratory, laboratory

supervisor and laboratory technician for Armco and Royal Commission
Approved Laboratories in different parts of the kingdom. During this period, I
have performed all kind of material testing activities as per the approved
international standards.

In my 06 years of experience, as a Field Geologist, handled field activities and

performed field testing e.g. logging, SPT, Pressure Meter Testing, Piezo Cone
Penetration, Geotechnical Dynamic Compaction, Stone Column Compaction of
weak zones, Permeability Tests, Structural Load Tests, Uplift & Lateral Load
tests , Small Scale Plate Bearing Load Tests , Field CBR, UPV, pH, Pull Off,
Concrete Cracks at various projects including industrial plants, storage tanks,
transmission towers, substations, residential & commercial buildings, Sewage
treatment plants, ship terminal facilities and offshore platforms.
As a Material Inspector and the QA/QC job included to develop the quality
plan and to ensure the compliance of construction activities to project
specification. I have carried out plant verifications of concrete and asphaltic mix
designs and ensured the material traceability, laboratory and site works
compliance to the standards & specification.

As a Laboratory Technician, carried out testing on Soil, Concrete, Bituminous

Mixes and Aggregate, Cement, Water, Mortar, Grout Mixes, Hollow Blocks,
Paving Units etc. For civil engineering projects, soil and concrete testing have
been carried out both in the lab and on the field inclusive of tests to determine
the classification and strength properties of soils and standard tests on
concrete to determine its quality, uniformity, durability and workability. For
bituminous mixes, carried out quality tests to determine the quality of flexible
pavement as per Marshall Method inclusive tests e.g. specific density,
Penetration of Bituminous Materials Chemical Testing etc. For aggregates
standard quality tests include LA abrasion, Soundness etc.

I have also been conducting Non Destructive Testing on concrete floors for its
pH value and Moisture content, UPV on walls, beams, foundations, slabs, roofs
of concrete for its uniformity and depth of cracks etc. SFRM on walls, steel
structures against fire, plus on aggregate for sand equivalent and soundness,
on cement for its chemical composition, on water for its suitability for use for
concrete batching plant and drinking water purposes.
