I worked as a technical engineer in the infrastructure project "Reconstruction and Upgrading of Zarqa'a-Azraq-Omari Highway" that has a cumulative length of 110 km to connect the borders of Saudi Arabia with Al-Zarqa'a city in the north of Jordan. Several works were assigned to me such as; quantity surveying, preparing shop drawings and some tendering works. The supervision consultant was Engicon and the project cost was estimated by 150, 000, 000$.

I had a summer training in roads design using Autocad Land Desktop 2006 software at "Roads and Transportation" section. Also, I attended a site training at (Irbid Ring Road Project) which was designed by Arabtech Jardaneh.
