Angelica Dacir

Civil Engineer with 3+ years of professional experience in structural engineering review, reinforcement, rebar coordination, and construction documentation. Experienced in reviewing structural drawings, structural shop drawings, rebar cutting lists from foundation through topping-off, RFAs, RFIs, setting-out, as-built works, construction bulletins, and technical submittals. Experienced in reviewing submissions against Issued for Construction (IFC) drawings, Final Construction Drawings (FCD), previous approved shop drawings, specifications, and project requirements.

Skilled in identifying reinforcement discrepancies, constructability issues, structural coordination conflicts, and assessing the structural and technical implications of RFIs.

Experience includes ongoing high-rise residential and commercial developments, including an approximately 80-storey condominium project, an approximately 50-storey condominium project, and a major mall/commercial project. Also experienced in structural/site inspections, as-built verification, existing building assessment, and preparation/review of documentation for post-earthquake structural assessment and structural certification.

STRUCTURAL REVIEW ENGINEER at SY² + Associates, Inc. (2023 – Present)

• Review structural drawings, reinforcement details, structural shop drawings, rebar cutting lists, RFAs, RFIs, construction bulletins, and technical submittals for compliance with approved structural requirements, design intent, and project specifications.
• Review rebar cutting lists from foundation works through topping-off, checking bar sizes, quantities, lengths, spacing, bending, splicing, couplers, anchorage, development length, and reinforcement continuity.
• Review reinforcement layouts and detailing for beams, girders, slabs, columns, shear walls, coupling beams, pile caps, foundations, and other reinforced concrete structural elements.
• Check structural setting-out and coordinate proposed locations from Architectural (AR) and MEPFS trades, particularly where openings, sleeves, penetrations, and embedded items may affect structural members and reinforcement.
• Review RFIs and RFAs, assess their structural and technical implications, and provide technical comments and recommendations to the responsible designers/engineers for formal response.
• Review submissions against Issued for Construction (IFC) drawings, Final Construction Drawings (FCD), previous approved shop drawings, specifications, and other relevant project references.
• Identify discrepancies, missing reinforcement, detailing conflicts, rebar congestion, constructability concerns, and coordination issues affecting structural works.
• Review proposed rebar splicing and coupler arrangements, reinforcement modifications, structural openings, sleeves, embedded items, and other construction-related proposals.
• Perform as-built verification of structural and reinforcement works and participate in scheduled structural/site inspections to verify compliance with approved drawings and project requirements.
• Assist in the structural assessment of existing buildings, including review of available structural information and site conditions.
• Prepare and review technical documentation related to post-earthquake structural assessment and structural certification.
• Review construction bulletins and proposed structural revisions for potential impacts on reinforcement and structural works.
• Review structural and reinforcement requirements for projects involving both reinforced concrete and structural steel systems.
• Prepare clear and technically focused review comments for coordination with designers, contractors, and site teams.
• Assist in resolving reinforcement and structural detailing issues encountered during construction through technical review, coordination, and follow-up.
