Engineering Experience Meets Research

My work combines professional engineering practice, technical consulting, and academic research. Over the years, I have been involved in geotechnical engineering, geosynthetic systems, underground waterproofing, watertight concrete, and rehabilitation projects, contributing to projects from investigation and design to material selection, construction, and technical supervision.

Alongside professional practice, my academic research in geotechnical engineering and geosynthetics has strengthened my analytical approach to engineering challenges. This combination has shaped a system-based perspective: underground engineering problems should not be addressed through a single material or isolated discipline, but through an integrated understanding of ground conditions, structural behavior, waterproofing, drainage, materials, and construction quality.
