Post date: Jan 29, 2014 2:40:01 AM

Design engineer on water retention devices ranging from cast iron sluice and flap gates, stainless steel or aluminum fabricated slide and flap gates, and bulkhead style fabricated gates.

Led a project portfolio of over 3 million dollars within the first year of employment, as well as leading the transition from AutoCAD installation and fabrication drawings to Solidworks. The goal of this transition is to reduce the lead time from customer approval of proposed products to fabrication drawings sent to shop floor.

Above are a few pictures of a 13' x 13' stainless steel bulkhead slide, taken during an inspection trip to a local fabrication shop in Denver, CO. This bulkhead gate is installed in Thomson Hydroelectric Dam in Carlton, MN.
