Need to secure your structural studies or handle a workload peak?
Graduate engineer from École des Ponts ParisTech with over 15 years of expertise, I support design offices, architects, and industrial companies.
My background, forged on high-constraint projects (Nuclear, Oil & Gas, Heavy Industry), guarantees absolute rigor on your projects.
My areas of intervention:
- Audit & Diagnosis:Verification of the load-bearing capacity of existing structures (e.g., installation of photovoltaic panels, new equipment).
- AVP to EXE Studies:Complete design and sizing in reinforced concrete, steel structures, timber, and composite structures.
- Renovation & Revamping:Complex strengthening solutions integrating operational constraints on site.
- Geotechnics & Foundations:Studies of shallow and deep foundations, industrial slabs, and retaining structures.
Key references:
- Nuclear (ITER, CEA, EDF):Project management for the TAPB building (ITER). Sizing of non-modeled elements (slabs, foundations) and writing of technical specifications in English.
- Oil & Gas (Total, Petroineos, LyondellBasell):Verification of the capacity of existing racks under new piping loads. Modeling on Robot and sizing of anchors and metal platforms.
- Cement Plants (Lafarge, Heidelberg):Preliminary sizing, cost estimation (BOQ), and monitoring/control of execution studies.
- International (Riyadh Metro, Kuwait Cultural Center):Multidisciplinary technical coordination (TCE) on site and verification of TEKLA models for complex structures.
My added value:A partner capable of optimizing your costs and respecting your deadlines. I integrate with your teams with great responsiveness (proposal within 48 hours).Available for on-site travel for coordination meetings and surveys.

Study of an existing composite floor for the installation of new lifting platformsCIVIL ENGINEERINGJanuary 2026 - February 2026 (1 month)Main ContributionMy mission consisted of designing and justifying a tailor-made strengthening solution to allow the safe installation of four 4.2-ton lifting platforms on an existing floor that did not meet manufacturer requirements.The composite slab was only 120 mm thick, whereas manufacturers require a minimum of 200 mm for standard anchoring.Problems Solved:- Neutralization of collapse risks:Elimination of the risk of brittle failure by punching and shear of the under-reinforced slab.
- Overcoming manufacturer limits:Design of a through-bolting anchoring system to overcome the inability to use chemical or expansion anchors.
- Overall compliance:Resolution of the capacity deficit of the existing joists and the building's bracing.
Actions Taken:- Structural Diagnosis:Critical analysis of on-site surveys (Ferroscan and sclerometer) to define calculation assumptions.
- Modeling and Calculations:Finite element modeling using Robot Structural Analysis and manual checks according to Eurocodes 2 and 3.
- Design of a "short-circuit" frame:Sizing of a steel structure underneath (HEB 220 / HEA 240) to take up all tilting moments.
- Anchoring Engineering:Calculation of 30 mm distribution plates and a clamping system with 11 through-bolts M20 8.8 per column.
- Deliverables:Writing of a comprehensive calculation note and a principle diagram for approval by the Inspection Body.
Results Achieved:The study enabled the validation of a viable technical solution, avoiding costly reconstruction of the slab.The garage is now safe for vehicles up to 3 tons (GVW), with a reinforced and durable primary structure. - StructuRAFounder & Structural Engineer — StructuRA (Freelance)CIVIL ENGINEERINGAugust 2025 - Today (10 months)Paris, FranceI assistdesign offices, architects, and companiesinthe design, calculation, and execution of structuresin reinforced concrete and steel, providingreliable, flexible, and fastsupport, from theAVP to the EXEstages.Intervention Methods:
