Skills

1. Being a Consultant Structural Engineer, I had a major role in the structural design of many strategic structures in Iraq during the period (1973-1991), namely, Um Qasr harbor, concrete grain silos throughout Iraq, six ministerial buildings, Al-Mammon Tower and many other important structures throughout Iraq.
2. Played a major role in the structural repair and renovation of many strategic buildings in Iraq during the 1991 post war reconstruction campaign.
3. I have trained a numerous number of young structural engineers by involving them directly in the process of structural design of buildings.
