Engineering Overseas

I just returned from Nigeria where I got my first experience of putting engineering skills to use overseas. It was a whirlwind of a trip, but I was surrounding by the beauty of God's creation, generous nationals, and a team of knock-out professionals. Here are some pictures of the civil engineering assessments I took part in:

Climbed the water tower to understand the process flow
My "office" for one of the mornings

Assessing the existing septic tank

Reviewing a newly build septic tank and soakway pit

Performing a perc test

Measuring the existing stormwater drainage system
