He has accomplished his thesis on the experimental investigation of fracture behavior and mechanical characteristics of Rammed Earth materials. He is experienced in professional engineering practice and was involved in the post-earthquake seismic retrofit of buildings in a national project in Iran after the 7.3 Mw earthquake in Kermanshah, Iran 2017. Being sponsored by IOM in 2020, he became a member of the project of rehabilitation of cultural heritage and monuments of Afghanistan and a member of large-scale building design and construction for residential townships as a structural engineer.
