This document is a CV for Steven Morrison that provides his contact information, qualifications, experience, and recent projects. It summarizes that he has over 15 years of experience in construction site management and civil engineering roles, including managing projects for transport infrastructure, buildings, and bridges. His most recent role since 2014 has been as a general foreman and site manager for R&M Developments on projects such as a new transport interchange and school.
I have 4 years’ experience in the Civil and Structural Industry. My expertise is in the structural sector motivated by my fascination with Architecture and high rise buildings. I have been privileged to be a part of numerous investigations into structural failures and serviceability failures which has given invaluable insight on how buildings perform overtime as well as determining the modes of failure with regards to design, detailing and construction.
I am currently employed at Gavin Brown and Associates. I am privileged to work for a small firm that tackles challenging jobs both in the private and public sector. Gavin Brown is a Professional Civil and Structural Engineer as well as a Professional Architect. By practicing in both Architecture and Structural Engineering, which is an added advantage when working with other Architects, I have a firm understanding of both form and function as well as the application of the National Building Regulations.
My ambition is to become a High Rise Specialist and Bridge Engineer.
