About Shah Alam
A skilled Geotechnical Engineer currently working at Bentley Systems as a Geotechnical Support Engineer, providing expert-level technical assistance on PLAXIS 2D and PLAXIS 3D to global users. He specializes in solving complex geotechnical modeling challenges involving advanced soil-structure interaction, foundation systems, tunnel simulations, and constitutive soil models. Prior to this, he worked with Systra Group India on the HS2 Rail Design Project (UK), where he was involved in the geotechnical design of integral bridges, overbridges, underbridges, culverts, deep and shallow foundations, and reinforced earth (RE) walls, with a strong focus on SSI analysis in PLAXIS 2D. He also has 1.5 years of experience at Maccaferri in the field of rockfall mitigation and erosion control, contributing to major projects like KRCL and MCRP. He holds an M.Tech in Geotechnical Engineering from IIT Guwahati, where his academic and research work focused on advanced soil mechanics, foundation systems, soil dynamics, and the numerical analysis of soil liquefaction using the UBC3D-PLM model in PLAXIS. He is proficient in geotechnical tools such as ALP, Slide, HoleBASE SI, iSpatial, and ProjectWise, and has strong command of design codes including Eurocode 7, BS, AFNOR, PD6694, AASHTO, IS, IRC 37, IRC-SP 59, and FHWA. His design expertise spans sheet pile walls, MSE walls, slope stability, embankments, reinforced shallow foundations, and soil nailing.
