2020-2022 - Developed the testing protocol and the budgeting, performed all the data collection and analysis, and wrote two reports presenting the service life of geosynthetic liner materials used in the spillway.
2017-2020 - Developed a new equipment capable of measuring the transmissivity of geosynthetic drains in a small-scale model simulating a landfill contaminant barrier, including all its materials. The project was funded by the Canadian Foundation for Innovation with a value of $80,000.
2014 - Senior Geotechnical Engineer Consultant, responsible for training a team of two junior engineers and two geological engineers to design and manage slope stability risk projects with the Transportation & Public Works Department of Minas Gerais. The project included developing slope stability and retaining walls solutions for natural occurrence landslides in dense population areas and presenting technical reports, for over 10 municipalities.
2013 - Responsible for the design of a retaining wall in the back of a hospital. The slope was starting to move and the houses on top of the slope were emptied by the civil defense. Other responsibilities included managing a team of one junior engineer and a CAD specialist, analyzing geotechnical investigation data, elaborating a geotechnical specification for a complementary geotechnical investigation, calculating the anchors and the in-situ cast concrete wall, and developing all the engineered drawings for execution of the structure.
2012 - Responsible for reviewing the final materials and work specifications report made by the Junior Engineer for survey, excavations, quarry specifications, embankment filling material and execution requirements.
