    • Established in 2017, as the result of the merger of TPF Planege with CENOR Consulting Engineers, TPF Planege Cenor is one of the major players in the Portuguese consulting engineering market. Being part of TPF Group, TPF Planege Cenor provides technical and management services in different fields of engineering. The transition between both companies was as smooth as it could have been.

      In effect, I kept performing the same functions that I previously had at CENOR Consulting Engineers. Therefore, apart from continuing the development of different ongoing studies, my experience at the Excavations and Underground Works Division of TPF Planege Cenor Geology and Geotechnics Sector allowed me to take part in new challenging projects, such as:

      - Algiers Metro. Extension E. Construction project. Algiers, Algeria.
      - Beaulieu Station
      - Ventilation Shaft nº 9

      - Structural Reinforcement of Encumeada Tunnel. Construction project. Madeira, Portugal (2/2).

  • Cenor Consulting Engineers : ( 08/09/2014 - 31/12/2016 )
    • Civil Engineer - Geotechnics

    • CENOR Consulting Engineers was one of the leading companies in the Portuguese engineering consulting panorama, dedicating its activity to the elaboration of reports, studies and projects in a wide range of civil engineering domains.

      Despite only having joined CENOR Consulting Engineers in 2014 (immediately after finishing my MSc in Civil Engineering), my experience at the Underground Works Division of its Geology and Geotechnics Sector allowed me to develop a broad range of skills and put in practice all the knowledge acquired at University by taking part in high-budget projects all over the world, namely:

      - Algiers Metro. Extension E. Construction project. Algiers, Algeria.
