Electrical BIM Engineer · Projects in Saudi Arabia
From site reality to coordinated BIM.
Electrical Engineer combining BIM design with hands-on experience in PLC systems and water treatment operations. I develop coordinated electrical models, calculations and shop drawings using Revit MEP, AutoCAD and Navisworks.

01Featured project
Central AlUla Staff Accommodation
Six buildings for Diyar ALMAHASH. I designed two of them and prepared the shop drawings for the other four, across every electrical and low-current system.

01
Design
RBL and SDB designed from the ground up: loads, routes, boards and every low-current system.
-
02
Shop drawings
AMM, SMB, JS1 and JS2 detailed to a level a site team can build from.
-
03
Review and coordination
Drawing reviews managed through Autodesk Construction Cloud, so every comment had an owner and every sheet a status.
02Model inspector
Inside the models.
Switch between projects, follow the numbered notes, move the lens for a magnified view, or open the full-resolution export.
03Selected projects in Saudi Arabia
Four projects. Four electrical problems.
Three of them with the actual model output. Each sheet shows what the project needed and what I delivered.

Private Aircraft Hangar, KAIA
A private aircraft hangar at King Abdulaziz International Airport is one long roof with services that have to reach every bay. I reviewed the power, lighting, earthing, lightning protection and low-current designs, coordinated the electrical model with structure and mechanical, and checked clashes in Navisworks.

Taif Cinema
Cinema halls are dense with low-current systems and long feeder routes. I reviewed the electrical and low-current designs, produced the Revit shop drawings and identified coordination clashes in Navisworks.

King Fahd Sports City
A stadium at LOD 400. I coordinated the electrical systems, produced the BIM shop drawings and reviewed the cable and cable-tray sizing, voltage-drop and short-circuit calculations.
- LOD 400 coordination
- Calculations
- Shop drawings
- Clash detection
04Toolkit
One workflow, from the plant floor to the issued sheet.
The tools matter less than knowing which stage of the job each one answers.
-
01
Understand
Read the system before drawing it
- PLC systems
- Fault tracing on Siemens and Schneider controllers
- Classic control
- Motor control panels and star-delta starters
- Site experience
- Ten years of plant operation and maintenance
-
02
Model
Turn intent into a coordinated model
- Revit MEP
- Electrical models, layouts and schedules
- AutoCAD
- Details and single-line diagrams
- DIALux
- Lighting calculations against room criteria
-
03
Coordinate
Find the clash before the site does
- Navisworks
- Clash detection against architecture and mechanical
- Drawing reviews
- Comments with an owner and a status on every sheet
- Other trades
- Routes agreed with structure, HVAC and plumbing
-
04
Deliver
Documents a site team can build from
- Shop drawings
- LOD 400 electrical shop drawing sets
- Calculations
- Cable and tray sizing, voltage drop, short circuit
- BOQs and submittals
- Quantities, specifications and code compliance
05Experience
The plant came first. It shows in the model.
In order: ten years of operations built the instincts, the degree added the theory, and BIM turned both into drawings a site team can build from.

How I work with a team
- 01Team collaboration
Ten years inside plant crews, now alongside architects and mechanical engineers.
- 02Communication
Clear review comments, and a plain answer when site asks why a route changed.
- 03Critical thinking
Tracing a fault to its cause, not its symptom, in the plant and in the model.
- 04Time management
Shop drawings for four buildings alongside design work on two more.
- 05Working under pressure
Keeping treatment plants running through faults, where downtime is not an option.
