• Characterize and classify ground conditions for different tunneling methods based on geotechnical information.
• Communicate design work through Preparation of drawing sketches indicating support types, geometry, construction sequencing, and instrumentation.
• Use tunnel design software such as FLAC/FLAC3D, UDEC/3DEC, RocScience, or FracMan.
• Undertake geological mapping and rock mass classification on site.
• Apply rock and soil mechanics skills to assess likely failure modes and develop ground support schemes.
• Undertake linear and non-linear structural analysis of shotcrete and concrete tunnel linings based on Code requirements using first principles or structural design software packages (SAP, GSA).
• Make use of automation and established workflows to follow best practice. Develop workflows and ideas for automation where none exist.
• Work in multidisciplinary teams for delivery of large scale infrastructure projects for transportation, water/wastewater, or mining.
