About
Structural Engineer (MS) & 7D BIM Specialist
I am a Structural Engineer with advanced expertise in 7D Building Information Modeling (BIM). With a strong academic foundation—holding both a BS in Civil Engineering and an MS in Structural Engineering—I bridge the gap between rigorous theoretical analysis and modern digital construction management.
My goal is to help clients visualize, analyze, and optimize their projects before ground is ever broken. I specialize in taking projects beyond standard 3D modeling, integrating time, cost, sustainability, and facility management data to create a complete digital twin of your asset.
Core Expertise & Services
Advanced BIM & Infrastructure Modeling I utilize industry-leading tools to create precise, data-rich models for complex buildings and infrastructure projects.
Revit: Detailed architectural and structural modeling (LOD 100 to LOD 500).
Civil 3D & Infraworks: Large-scale infrastructure design, site development, and topography modeling.
Structural Analysis & Design My academic background ensures that all models are backed by sound engineering principles. I perform in-depth analysis to guarantee structural integrity and code compliance.
Analysis Tools: Proficient in ETABS, SAP2000, and Robot Structural Analysis for complex load calculations, seismic analysis, and steel/concrete design.
7D BIM Integration (Simulation & Management) I leverage the full spectrum of BIM dimensions to reduce project risk, prevent costly clashes, and ensure on-time delivery.
4D (Time) & 5D (Cost): Integrating Navisworks, Primavera P6, and MS Project to create detailed construction simulations, schedule tracking, and cost estimation.
Visualization: utilizing Twinmotion to render photorealistic walkthroughs and presentations that help stakeholders understand the final product.
6D (Sustainability) & 7D (Facility Management): Embedding data for long-term asset tracking and energy analysis.
Education
Master of Science (MS) in Structural Engineering
Bachelor of Science (BS) in Civil Engineering
I am ready to bring this advanced toolkit to your next project, ensuring precision from the initial concept phase through to construction and operation.

Founder & Principal Engineer | Suraaj Design Bureau
Suraaj Design Bureau is a specialized design and documentation firm providing integrated Structural, Architectural, and MEP engineering services. We leverage advanced BIM (Building Information Modeling), analysis, and simulation tools to deliver fully coordinated, efficient, and constructible designs.
Our firm serves a global clientele, with significant project experience in Pakistan, the USA, UK, Germany, Africa, the Middle East (KSA), India, and Bangladesh.
Key Projects & Firm Capabilities:
Riyadh Metro Project, KSA: Our team provided advanced BIM modeling and documentation for complex, non-standard architectural ceiling systems. We successfully managed the complete BIM-to-Fabrication workflow, ensuring precise coordination with primary structural and MEP systems across multiple metro stations.
USA Residential Permit Drawing Sets (Multiple States): Suraaj Design Bureau has a strong track record of helping clients in the USA, delivering dozens of complete drawing sets for residential projects. Our expertise in local codes (e.g., in Texas, Florida, and California) ensures our clients receive permit-ready Architectural, Structural, and MEP documentation.
Integrated Multi-Disciplinary Residential Design (High-End Villas): We have delivered comprehensive "Single Source of Truth" projects for luxury residential properties. Our services on these projects include:
Architectural, Structural & MEP Design: Full, coordinated design from concept to construction documents.
BIM Coordination & Clash Detection: Managing a central LOD 400 Revit model to identify and resolve hundreds of potential clashes between trades (Structural, HVAC, Plumbing, and Electrical) before construction.
4D Construction Simulation: Providing the client and contractor with a detailed 4D construction sequence animation to optimize the project timeline.
Commercial & Mixed-Use Structures: Our firm has led the complete structural design and BIM documentation for multi-story commercial and mixed-use buildings. This work involves advanced seismic analysis (Response Spectrum Analysis), post-tensioned slab design, and managing a fully coordinated central BIM model for all trades.
4D Construction Simulation & Bid Support (For Contractors): We develop detailed 4D construction simulations and animations for general contractors. These models visually sequence the entire construction and logistics process, proving instrumental in winning tenders by clearly communicating the construction methodology and timeline.
