About Prateek Badiger

Enthusiastic, fast learner, and result-driven young Structural Engineer with an inquisitive mind to learn new skills. Passionate about solving complex design problems, structural analysis, and developing final working plan set.Currently working for AECOM Transportation team; helping with the complex structural analysis and design calculations of the highly skewed prestressed concrete/ Railroad bridges and developing the plan set in OpenRoads/Microstation. During my internship at Kiewit, I got the opportunity to carry out fieldwork to investigate the severity of damage to 33 bridges, where over 7 bridges were found to have major issues.Design Skills:Superstructure: CIP Slab design || Steel I-Girder design || PSTR I-Girder design || Bridge GeometrySubtructure: Precast Column design || CIP single column design || CIP Multi-column bent design || Straddle bent designFoundation: DS design || CIP Footing design || Steel H-pile designWalls: Cantilever RC Wall designSoftware Skills:OpenRoads Designer || OpenRoads Modeller || Microstation || Leap Bridge Concrete || BridgeLink || LPILE || SpColumn || RISA 3D || MathCAD || Revit || Bluebeam Revu || Risa 3D || ETABS || Staad Pro || MS Office - Excel, Word, PowerPoint || OutlookEmail: p••••••••@gmail.com
