Engineers make the most evident alterations to the landscape. They decide what the horizon will look like, where people will stay, and how people think about the living environment. The land is also regulated by the civil engineers who plan and build the roadways and bridges. These structures are built to last. Bearing in mind the size of the investment in millions, even billions, of dollars, a robust, rock-hard structure is the first necessity. For this reason, the architect and civil engineer require to start the design procedure with an association with a geotechnical consultant. Geotechnical consultants have a full knowledge of the properties of the earth and in what way structures must take these properties into account.
Reddy Kancharla is a well-known geotechnical consultant who has more than twenty five years of experience in this particular field. As a geotechnical consultant, he actually deals with the structural backgrounds, soils, and mechanics, geology engineering, submarine pipelines, and all subjects relating to civil engineering constructions and designs.
Responsibilities:
- The geotechnical consultants strategize and design the constructions for roads, buildings, canals embankments, and several other construction projects. Beside their construction role, the geotechnical consultants will also take care of geological hazards such as soil erosion, landslides, and, in some extreme circumstances, earthquakes.
- The geotechnical consultants need to spend most of their time in the field and in analysis research laboratory. The job involves lots of travel and ample of stringent cutoff date.
- Geotechnical engineering consultants are responsible in offering insight as well as support to the Geotechnical Engineering ventures which have influences on the wider planetary setting. The main purpose of this type of project is to decrease or maybe thwart the environmental issues and damages that are caused.
Mr. Kancharla as a geotechnical consultant is quite intrusive, dedicated and always tries to stay motivated. He is a fully licensed Geotechnical engineering consultant who has worked on several well-known projects.
Reddy Kancharla has more than two decades of experience in civil construction as well as geotechnical consultation. He has completed his master’s degree in civil engineering from Texas Tech University at Lubbock. Before that from Osmania University in Hyderabad, India, he has completed his bachelor’s degree. He has had a vast career in civil construction, geotechnical consultation, and construction QA/QC as well as a decade of senior management experience.
Some of the projects he has worked on are many multistory buildings in New York City which include Bloomberg, Reuters, Terminals 1, 4, 5 and 7 of the John Fitzgerald Kennedy Airport and 7 World Trade Center, Yankee Stadium, the USTA National Tennis Center, the Giants/Jets Stadium, and Goldman Sachs.
Reddy states rightly that being a consultant is a very rewarding career path. But, it is usually available only to candidates with a blend of academic credentials and wide-ranging work experience. These consultants are the subject matter experts on whom the architects and project managers can rely on.
Thus, it can be said that geotechnical consultant plays a significant role in the civil engineering industry.
