TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE SECTOR
In transport infrastructure sectors, EIMS has experience in multiple areas i.e. roads, highway and pedestrian and connecting bridge design and design review services, road base stabilization, slope stabilization of road etc. of different government and non-governments sectors, WFP and other administrative sectors in last 5 years. However some selected experiences are related to the sectors are discussed below.
Project Tittle: Engineering services for the Geotechnical and Structural design of several bridges and slope protection analysis of roads and dams for humanitarian emergency operations in Kutapalong Rohingya refugee and host community, Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh.
- Strengthening of Lambashia Bridge: A vehicular bridge in Lambashia, leading up to the Kutapalong refugee camp in Coz’s Bazar, Bangladesh. The weight limit on the bridge was 5 tons, as set by the Bangladeshi Army. WFP seek to increase the maximum load bearing capacity to 10 tons or more, and to reinforce the sides of the bridge to prevent soil erosion weakening the structure.
- ChouKhali Bridge Vetting: The 36m modular steel bridge was at manufacturing stage and the fabrication of modular abutments requires WFP’s technical input based on geotechnical information that requires an in-situ assessment.
- Fish Bridge: retrofitting design of a damaged diagonal truss member steel C channel enclosing the panel of Fish Bridge.
Project Title: Retrofit Design & Construction of Bridge and Approach road [Contract for Jet Grouting, Anchor Piling and Retrofitting of Abutment of 24 Meter Bridge (Bridge-2), at Mirsarai Economic Zone, BEZA)].

Project Tittle: Consultancy services of Buriganga (Phase 2) bridge project, Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Authority (BIWTA)
- In this project, a total 52 km length of the pedestrian walkway and quay wall along the bank of the Buriganga River will be constructed in the 1st phase of this project to project the riverbank against the river erosion and beautification of river side.
- Later on, the quay wall and pedestrian walkway will be extended for the Turag, Balu, and Shitalakya Rivers.
- Moreover, a total of 11 jetties will be planned and design to facilitate the loading and unloading of river transportation vessels.
Project Tittle: Assessment and Remedial Design of Slope Protection and Soil Investigation at Different Locations of Kutupalong Refugee Camp. This project is for humanitarian emergency operations in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh.
- In EIMS has carried out slope stability assessment and side slope protection of dam constructed in Camp 20 extension, Kutapalong refugee camp in Cox's Bazar by World Food Program (WFP).
- Most of the natural slopes has been changed. To protect the slope, several measures was taken as ad-hoc basis.
Project Tittle: Connecting Foot Over Bridge between Sikder Center & Sikder Haus.
Connecting walking bridge design with conceptual design and detail design drawing between sikder center and sikder haus.
Project Tittle: Consultancy Service for design review connecting bridge for Arkay Knit Dyeing Mills Limited at Zeerani Bazar, Kashimpur Joydevpur, Gazipur, Bangladesh; Client: Palmal Group of Industries Limited.
- The main detail design review of steel connecting bridge as per BNBC 2020.
- Steel connecting checking as per the code specified.
- Preparation of all revised detail drawings for construction.
ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND HYDROLOGICAL SECTOR
EIMS has experience in different sectors i.e. conservation and management of water resources, water supply, storage, treatment, distribution, and wastewater management infrastructure, Including solar, wind and micro hydro and biomass/biogas, transmission, and energy sector planning and research etc. of different government and non-governments sectors, UNICEF, WFP, World Bank and other administrative sectors. However some major experiences are related to the sectors are presented here.
Project Tittle: Basin Modelling of the Brahmaputra River System in Bangladesh.
- The project’s goal is to support strategic and basin-wide management of the basin.
- Identifying and assessing alternative basin models and analytical tools to analyze the development issues and the associated impacts
- It aims to build capacity to better understand the dynamics of the basin, enable prioritization of development alternatives, and identify models and tools to evaluate their impacts.
Project Tittle: Rural Piped Water System design and construction supervision under the Arsenic Safe Union Project in four districts of Bangladesh.
- Conducting Feasibility Assessment and final site selection.
- Prepare Sustainability Mechanism and Tariff structure.
- Approval of Design and cost estimates. Prepare Tender Documents for bidding.
