Pengarang: Tamer Sorour

Assistant Professor Tamer Sorour is a Geotechnical Engineer graduated from the Faculty of Engineering, Ain Shams University, and obtained his Ph D from the Faculty of Engineering, Ain Shams University in 2009. He performed various researches in different fields of Geotechnical Engineering, such as soil dynamics including the hazards accompanied with pile driving in different soil formations as well as the design of machine foundations and soil liquefaction, and the stability of soil slopes under the effect of earthquakes. The field of deep excavations including different shoring and anchorage systems. The field of soil improvement using stone columns and the effect of the installation technique on the behavior of the stone columns. He also shared in different researches that are focused on the response of large diameter piles in different soil formations. He also have minor/major contribution in different mega projects in Egypt as supervisor of structural and geotechnical works including, but not limited to: geotechnical and geo-environmental studies, execution of boreholes, shallow and deep excavation works, performing different laboratory testing, field control and field testing using different techniques, installation of different types of piles, retaining walls and different supported deep excavation systems, soil stabilization, dewatering, protection of side slopes and landslides, grouting and field monitoring.  Geo-Institute of HBRC is considered one of the largest geotechnical institutes in the Middle East that has ISO certificate. Professor Hisham had been selected to chair the institute from many years ago. This selection had been done based on his activities, accuracy, awareness, and hard work in the research. He is specialized in Geotechnical Testing, Neural Networks for the Geotechnical Engineering, and Soil Improvement.
