11. Years of professional experience: 28 (from the year of graduation)

12. Main Professional Qualifications:

Michalis’ career in tunnelling and geotechnical engineering is the combination of:

1. his successful involvement in a large number of tunneling and geotechnical designs of

significant infrastructure projects in Greece and overseas (Doha Metro, Athens Metro,

Egnatia Highway Project, Patras – Athens – Thessaloniki Highway Project etc.),

2. his involvement in the Independent Engineer’s teams for major Highway Concession

Projects in Greece (i.e. MOREAS Concession Highway Project, AEGEAN Motorways

Concession Highway Project, OLYMPIA ODOS Concession Project), and

3. his numerous scientific / academic work in the areas of Geotechnical Engineering,

Foundations and Tunneling in weak rock conditions.

More specifically, Michalis’ experience in tunneling engineering, includes among others: (i)

the design of different types of tunnels (railway, motorway and hydraulic tunnels), (ii) the risk

analyses of various methodologies of underground operations (i.e. TBM and NATM) for

metros, railway and motorway projects, and (iii) the active membership in working groups for

drafting relevant design and construction specifications, specifically within FIDIC

Contractual frameworks (Red Book, Yellow Book, Silver Book and Green Book).

Michalis geotechnical consulting services can be offered in the following areas: (i) Design of

Cuts and Embankments, (ii) Design of Shallow and Deep Foundations of complex

superstructures, (iii) Design of ground stabilization measures, (iv) Independent checking of

various geotechnical designs and (v) Evaluation of in-situ and laboratory geotechnical

investigation results.

Finally it has to be emphasized: (i) Michalis’ participation in the Technical Consulting Group

for the initial design and construction phase of Athens Metro Project, (ii) Michalis’ 5 year co-

operation with the Hellenic (Greek) Ministry of Infrastructure, Transport & Networks (2006 –

2011), as Independent Geotechnical and Tunnel Expert and (iii) his recent co-operation with

Deutsche Bahn International for Doha Metro Project for the period 2012 – 2015.

Michalis’ current position, since December 2015, is Associate Technical Director at Arcadis

Dubai branch, leading / directing Geotechnical and Tunnel designs.
