“I enjoy combining the roles of structural engineer and project manager. This way, you have contact with both the client and construction partners, while also staying connected to the core of the profession.”

Introduction

My name is Berend Saalmink. I am a versatile structural engineer for both architectural and civil constructions. I prefer working on small to medium-sized projects, in a relatively small team, where there is direct contact between the design parties and the client. This way, as a structural engineer, you can best convey your advice and meet the client’s wishes. I have been working at ABT since 1988, but before that, I worked for a few years at Articon on railway-related structures. My education is in civil engineering with a specialization in structural engineering at the HTS in Arnhem.

What I do at ABT

At ABT, I started at the drawing board but quickly advanced to structural engineer and project manager. I enjoy combining these two roles because it allows you to have contact with both the client and construction partners, while also staying connected to the core of the profession. As a structural engineer, I have mainly worked with concrete and steel structures, but also with glass, wood, and aluminum.
