Guillermo Paz

Geotechnical Specialist, Laboratory and Field Supervisor, and Supervisor of Geotechnical Studies and Designs

• Conducted more than 100 geotechnical campaigns, including supervision of rotary drilling, Standard Penetration Tests (SPT), execution of geophysical field tests, and data interpretation (P-wave, S-wave, and Microtremor analysis).
• Performed geotechnical instrumentation and monitoring.
• Supervised and analyzed geotechnical laboratory and field tests for soil and rock mechanics.
• Supervised and analyzed concrete and aggregate testing in laboratory.
• Prepared technical reports for geotechnical studies.
• Conducted analysis and modeling of geotechnical structures using Limit Equilibrium (LE) and Finite Element Methods (FEM) for soil and rock mechanics.
• Assisted in geotechnical designs, including foundations, retaining walls, ground improvement, and slope stability assessments.

• Supervised the construction of more than 10 mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls and slope stabilization works, including berms, anchors, and drainage systems.
• Oversaw subgrade stabilization and earthwork operations for roadway projects through mechanical stabilization of pavement substructure.
• Supervised asphalt pavement rehabilitation projects utilizing fiberglass geogrid implementation.
• Conducted subgrade evaluations using Dynamic Cone Penetration (DCP) tests.

• Supervised more than 50 Standard Penetration Tests (SPT), continuous rotary drilling, geotechnical instrumentation, and geophysical testing.
• Prepared technical reports for geotechnical studies.
