Christchurch

Structural engineering was a passion that Rainier inherited from his father as a way to give back to the community and help others. He studied at the University of Canterbury and graduated with a Bachelor of Engineering in Civil (Honors) with a minor in structural engineering in hopes of following in his father's footsteps. Rainier has always seen complex and difficult projects as learning opportunities to unleash potential and continue improving himself.

Rainier joined the Structex team late 2021 after completing his degree at Canterbury University, and a summer internship with us the previous year. Since joining the Structex team, Rainier has been involved with residential and commercial projects and seismic strengthening.  Rainier also has experience with soil bearing tests, foundation excavation inspections, compaction testing and pre-pour reinforcement inspections through his previous work with ERGATS Design Ltd.

In his spare time, Rainier enjoys a wide range of outdoor activities such as fishing, camping and going on picnics with friends and family. He is also fond of swimming and running. Rainier also loves a good movie and enjoys spending a quiet night at home.
