Background

About Babak Navid

I am an MS.c structural calculation and design engineer with over 11 years of experience in heavy industrial steel and reinforced concrete. My expertise includes finite element analyses and hand calculations for static, dynamic, and non-linear analysis, with a focus on industrial, high fatigue, and heavy-duty crane runway beams and lifting. Additionally, I have experience in designing a wide range of structures, including airports, commercial buildings, hospitals, and residential projects, even in seismic zones. I have been involved in all project phases from pre-studies to execution, including temporary support for construction. My specialty lies in steel structures and the application of finite element methods in structural engineering. In recent years, I have served as a calculation lead engineer on significant projects such as:*660t crane girder design *Wind turbine foundations for 92.5m hub *Bearing capacity calculations of road bridge *Review of heavy crane girders design vs manufacturing *H2GS Steel Mill in Boden *SSAB New Steel Mill *Footfall analysis of pedestrian bridge *Upsala Hockey Arena *Nexans Expansion in Halden *Modernization of Globen *Northvolt FA2 *Vattenfall RGR *Kapellskär Wastewater Treatment Plant *Arlanda Airport *Salut Nuclear Waste Plant My technical skills include proficiency in IDEA-STATICA, ETABS, Craneway, and Mathcad. I have also worked with parametric design using Grasshopper with the plugin.
