Yucca Mountain Project – Design of 7.5 m diameter mains and shafts and 5.5 m diameter nuclear waste emplacement drifts and associated intersections under in situ, thermal, and seismic loads, development of design methodology.

- Completed several state-of-art design analyses utilizing two and three-dimensional continuous and distinct element codes by Itasca Consulting Group considering in situ, as well as thermal, and seismic loads. Planned the work scope, performed major portion of analyses and managed work of three geotechnical engineers including subcontractor to complete analyses on time and budget. This effort proved very successful as some of the planned 3D computers runs required several weeks to complete. The resulting work combined the conventional and advanced numerical modeling techniques into the documents, which address the baseline Project requirements and in which data transparency and traceability met strict requirements of NQA-1 Quality Assurance Program.
- Working as a liaison between design and construction contractor provided timely assistance to the engineering problems arising in the field, reviewed and provided input to construction specifications and field procedures. Wrote ground support specifications, supervised field implementation of procedures and associated in situ testing.
- Coordinated data collection and performed analysis of data to verify that safety and long-term stability of tunnels is maintained.
- With representatives of construction and quality assurance group performed periodical ESF tunnel and field inspections resulting in the direct feedback of inspection results to the design.

- Supervised work of five geotechnical engineers and developed first version of the Design Geotechnical Database.
- Using field-acquired data, performed ESF ground support confirmation analyses, which provided evidence that in a number of instances ground support system installed was overly conservative.
- In coordination with the Construction Division performed ESF tunnel inspections (301X Areas), documented the use of materials and provided conceptual design and recommendations for the remedial ground support measures, such that the long-term stability of tunnels would be maintained.
- Performed and also reviewed a number of analyses of the future nuclear waste repository tunnels under assigned design range of thermal and seismic loading conditions.
- Performed verification studies on rock support systems required for the underground facility for the nuclear waste disposal. As a result, the established the methodology whereby field tunnel performance data were compared to those obtained from numerical analyses and performed initial calibration of numerical models.

Lead then Supervising Rock Mechanics Engineer. Houston and Dallas, TX March 1987 to February 1997
Provided rock mechanics expertise to projects in two major areas:1) geotechnical design of underground structures, and design and monitoring of field instrumentation of excavations in rocks, and 2) geotechnical expertise in design of cavern for storage of gas, crude oil, and compressed air.

Rock Mechanics
Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) Facility, Waxahachie, Texas – Construction of approximately 15 miles of 5.5 m diameter tunnel excavated in chalk, soft shale and Over-consolidated Clay, and 26 shafts of diameter 18, 21 and large elliptical 30x60 ft. Design of two large cut-and cover excavations and associated field instrumentation.
- Managed ground control analysis, numerical modeling and design of deep foundations of two large open cut-and-cover excavations resulting in moving the entire facility to another location because of identified foundation stability problems.
- Co-authored with consulting companies a set of field instrumentation specifications, part of bidding packages.
- Managed data gathering, generation of drawings as input to the Geotechnical Design Summary Reports for two sections of the Collider Tunnel - 5.5 miles tunnel length.
- Managed field measurements performed by three different subcontractors and internal measurement group on three large (30 x 60 ft) shafts excavated in soft rocks.
- Managed daily evaluations of instrumentation data and disseminated information to the excavation contractors. In two distinct cases alerted construction crews to the increasing deformation rates, the situation remedied in one case in applying additional coats of shotcrete, and in another, by completing grouting behind liner plates to stabilize the shaft collar. Attention to results of measurements triggered immediate action and was essential in avoiding potential claim.
- Designed ground support for tunnel and shafts and performed frequent field inspection and field mapping to verify that the ground support worked as planned and distributed information to all parties involved.
- Supervised field tests of rock reinforcement in shafts and tunnels (rockbolt pullout tests) to verify design input.
- Trained young engineers in the use of design software and procedures for calibrations of numerical models to assure that the field data are used to verify and to improve the design.
- With others published the results of design and modeling data such that the permanent records of design would be preserved.

Salt Mechanics

- Routinely interacted with clients to establish the status of each operation and subsequent procedures for the operational parameters and long-term management of multi-cavern storage sites. Provided expertise on various aspects of salt solution mining and underground storage of oil and natural gas in natural salt formations.
- Evaluated performance, calculated remaining reserves, updated field documentation and provided operational advice to the owners of brine fields, SALGEMA, Brazil, (23 caverns) and General Chemical, Canada.
- Prepared the exploratory drilling and salt testing program for The Israel Electric Corporation, Ltd. The program involved both in-situ measurements and extensive laboratory testing program to prepare salt property database for the future development of gas storage caverns at Mount Sodom, Israel.
- Using the in situ measurements, e.g., borehole logs, data on brine/gas interface changes, sonar survey data, changes of cavern bottom elevations and gas injection records, provided assessment of cavern convergence and stability for Bay Gas Storage Co. Ltd., McIntosh, Alabama (domal salt).
- Using originally-developed rock property data supplemented by thermomechanical data obtained from the literature performed the rock mechanics analysis for CONOCO Inc, for the Project involving conversion of the existing cold (-28 ºC) ammonia storage facility located in room and pillar hard rock storage cavern mined in gneiss to propane storage. The analysis led to the development of procedure for the cavern operation conversion.
