4. Experience Detail:
Piping Stress Engineer

As piping stress engineer performed detail design calculation related to piping stress, to meet specific code requirements. This included
· Computer aided and manual calculations to ensure the compliance of piping stress requirements of B31.1, B31.3, B31.8, BS 7159, UKOOA and ISO 14692
· Evaluation of the loads exerted on the equipment by piping, against the criteria provided by the equipment manufacturer or relevant codes/standards like NEMA SM 23, API 610, and WRC 297/107 etc.
· Calculations to check stability and integrity of buried pipeline like upheaval buckling check, buoyancy lift check, ring buckling check etc
· Flange leakage and stress calculations resulting from piping moments and forces
· Min pipe wall thickness calculations, branch reinforcement pad calculations and local stress calculations at support point etc.
· Selection and design of pipe supports
· Selection of special components, needed to meet piping stress requirements, like expansion joints, spring hangers.
· Checking of Piping Plans/Isometrics to ensure incorporation of piping stress analysis requirements.
· Preparation of Stress Analysis Model drawing from piping isometrics/plans, P&IDs and other relevant documents
· Preparation of piping stress analysis proposals.
Lead Piping Stress Engineer

I had been the lead piping stress engineer in Descon Engineering and JGC Descon Engineering for about 5 years to manage the piping stress analysis work related to different projects awarded to the company. As lead stress engineer I was responsible for.
· Estimating, scheduling, planning, and monitoring of project stress analysis activities
· Preparation of piping stress execution procedures.
· Coordination with other design groups for piping stress analysis
· Review of the analysis performed by the subordinates to ensure realistic modeling and meeting of the analysis requirements.
· Guidance to less experienced engineers for piping stress analysis.
· In-House training related to piping stress to other engineers and designers
Other Experience:
I possess excellent skills of computer programming, which I have effectively utilized to provide customized solutions for piping design calculations. Examples include
· Developing an application in Access to facilitate preparation of piping load information for Civil
· Determination of branch reinforcement requirement for each branch defined in Material Specifications
· Minimum pipe wall thickness calculations for each line in Line Index
· Determination of local stress at pipe support point or pipe/saddle intersection point for each line in line index
· Manipulation of data to prepare specific design documents in specific format like ARAMCO Safety Instruction Sheets for critical piping, Test Packs Index, different MTOs etc.
· Design and maintenance of an Access database to manage the project stress analysis work and to customize Caesar II (Piping Stress Analysis Software) results
The tools used for this automation work were VBA for MS Excel, VBA for MS Access and VBA for AutoCAD

BE Mechanical Engineering from University of Engineering and Technology Lahore Pakistan in JUL 1995.

· Four months on job technical training by AOTS Japan in Pipe Stress Analysis at JGC, Yokohama, Japan.
· One month on job training by DESCON at PARCO project site.
· Three days workshop on Piping Stress Analysis by Consult & Train, Karachi Pakistan
· Three days workshop by Intergraph on PDS Relational Interface System.
· Three days workshop by Intergraph on PDS Project Set-up.
· Three days workshop on Effective Delegation Skills by Pakistan Institute of Management
