About Karl Benjamin

Civil engineering degree and 25 years of diverse experience in special, commercial, civil, marine, and infrastructure projects. My project experience includes airport capital expenditures including security and baggage systems, operations, and club spaces, tenant improvement, new building, building renovation/retrofit, retail, restaurant, roadway, bridge, seawall, pier, and dam infrastructure. The long list of scopes includes baggage conveyance, interior buildouts, MEP, curtain wall, all types of structural walls, structural excavation, structural steel, land and water pile driving (hammer, vibratory, oscillating), underground utilities and drainage, roadway improvements, and dam gates and trash racks. Roles include program management, general contracting, design-build, and GC/CM services for both public and private customers.Training is extensive and I have been a safety lead, a quality control manager, an environmental compliance lead with CESCL certification, and mentor. I have the ability to run multiple smaller projects with few staff members or a very large project with dozens of staff.Whatever construction element it is, I know something about it. I can guide a team through the work while maintaining positive employee, client, subcontractor, vendor, engineer, architect, consultant, and stakeholder relationships, no matter how challenging.
