Soroush is a Senior Associate Tunnel Engineer at WSP who has worked almost 10 years along multi-disciplinary areas of infrastructure projects, including tunnels, underground structures, hydropower dams, and building structures. Soroush commenced his involvement in construction projects in early 2014 by his commitment in large-scale infrastructure projects in middle east. His expertise spans Detailed Design, Construction Supervision, Technical and Financial Proposals, Feasibility Study, numerical modelling, seismic analysis, and Project Management and Control. Noteworthy projects include Underground Tunnels, Underground Train Stations, Underground Resorts, Ventilation Shafts, Multi-Storey Building Structures, Concrete Dams and hydropower projects, Stability of Retaining Walls, and highway Bridge. As a member of Engineers Australia (MIEAust), he has been designated as a Professional Engineer in civil structures by Engineers Australia (EA) and has excelled in structural engineering fields and Rock/Soli Foundation interaction area across projects. He has also been working in different national tunneling design works and construction sites such as M6 Motorway Tunnel project (Stage I) in Sydney as a lead geotechnical engineer and Western Harbour Tunnel (Stage II) project. Concurrently, since mid-2021, he has been pursuing a higher degree research PhD in the field of Civil Engineering at UNSW, Sydney. This academic endeavor is driven by his commitment to addressing industrial challenges, focusing on the seismic analysis of cracks and deformations within the concrete dams-rock foundation coupled system and pull-out analysis of post-tensioned anchors in foundation. Soroush earned both his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in civil engineering from University of Tehran (UT), with his master's thesis concentrating on the dynamic vibration control of cable-stayed bridges. Leveraging his academic and industrial success, he has been contributing to the academic community at UNSW from 2022 by delivering workshops on Australian civil standard codes and tutorials for various courses, such as Engineering Construction, Mechanics of Solids, Engineering Optimization and Control, Structural Analysis and Modelling, Concrete Structures, Steel Structures, and Computational Mechanics.
