About
Contributed to the delivery of major UK rail and infrastructure programmes — including Crossrail (Elizabeth Line), High Speed 2 (HS2) and the Thames Tideway Tunnel — providing CAD and technical support across the project lifecycle to strict engineering, safety and programme standards.
– CAD production: Prepared, produced, reviewed and updated detailed 2D drawings — general arrangements, site and track layouts, sections, construction details and as-builts — from engineers' markups, survey and coordinate data.
– Access design: Developed and produced access and egress drawings — maintenance access, walkways, staircases and escape routes — for rail schemes on and off tunnelled sections.
– Site layouts & setting-out: Developed and verified precise site layouts and setting-out data, referencing track alignments, chainage and datum to guide on-site construction teams.
– Coordination: Worked closely with multidisciplinary teams, contractors and surveyors — coordinating across civils, structures and drainage to resolve design discrepancies and clashes.
– Reporting & approvals: Authored technical reports, progress updates and drawing packages for planning applications and technical approval, aligned with client, local-authority and environmental requirements.
– QA & document control: Conducted regular drawing checks, documentation audits and revision control to maintain compliance with project, health-and-safety and quality standards.
