ABOUT MAHER ABSAR
I am a Civil Engineering graduate from the University of Toronto. In combining rigorous academic and professional experiences, I have demonstrated my passion for developing sustainable infrastructure that builds communities in positive ways. Relevant coursework includes Steel & Timber Design, Reinforced Concrete II, Introduction to Structural Dynamics, Prestressed Concrete and Structural Analysis II. Additionally, I have passed the NCEES PE Civil: Structural exam.In my roles, I\'ve gained diverse experience across multiple projects. At Black & Veatch, I prepared a plant grade evaluation report for the BWRX-300 plant layout at the Darlington New Nuclear Project (DNNP) for Ontario Power Generation (OPG), designed structural components at Florida Power & Light\'s Miami-Dade Clean Water Recovery Center (CWRC), and specified structural steel materials for SaskPower\'s Ermine Power Station Expansion project. At RJC Engineers, I analyzed loads for various developments, prepared structural designs of concrete and steel elements, and coordinated with engineers and drafters. As a Senior Technical Student with Toronto Hydro, I supported 100+ projects, obtained approval for invoices, reported project status, edited civil and electrical assets, identified potential conflicts, ensured regulatory compliance, and helped provide sign-off. Professional focal points include strategic planning, organization, inspections, cross-functional communication, agency cooperation, data collection and analysis, time management, reporting, and team leadership.Colleagues describe me as a progressive, driven, down-to-earth, engineering and cooperative team member who can be relied on to deliver significant results on time.
