Hello, I’m Adham Troy Custodio, a Licensed Civil Engineer in the Philippines and Engineer-in-Training in the U.S., with 10 years of combined experience in construction and structural engineering. I currently serve as a Lead Engineering Analyst at a U.S.-based structural firm where I oversee the structural design and review of complex commercial solar and non-solar projects across various U.S. jurisdictions.
I began my career managing land development and vertical construction projects. That hands-on experience in project execution laid the foundation for my transition into structural engineering, giving me a practical edge in constructability, detailing, and technical coordination.
My structural engineering portfolio includes ground-mounted solar arrays, timber-framed pergolas, concrete equipment pads, and custom steel structures. I design and analyze wood, steel, and concrete systems, prepare structural retrofit solutions, and provide code-compliant documentation tailored to strict permitting environments. I have also addressed plan check comments from high-demand jurisdictions.
Tools I use include AutoCAD, RISA 3D, Enercalc, STAAD, ETABS, and Excel-based design tools. I also supervise and guide structural technicians in quality assurance, calculation review, and documentation refinement, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and continuous improvement within the team.
Though based offshore, I am trusted to lead technically demanding projects independently while handling daily coordination with engineers, contractors, and permitting authorities across the U.S. My adaptability, self-leadership, and collaborative mindset make me an asset to remote teams and international clients seeking high-quality yet cost-effective engineering support.
In addition, I have handled drafting roles as a freelancer and produced architectural plans using SketchUp and AutoCAD, giving me versatility across the design and construction spectrum. My familiarity with Revit and documentation standards further positions me for hybrid roles inMore...
