Raphael Pontes, P.Eng.

Structural Engineer | Structural | Calgary

Raphael is a member of the structural engineering team at Williams Engineering in Calgary. His engineering journey has spanned structural engineering, geotechnical analysis, computational mechanics and field engineering – having designed a wide range of structures, from simple slab-on-grades, passing through sport arenas to dynamically loaded offshore structures.

At home, Raphael is immersed in a symphony of love and creativity. He enjoys the beautiful melodies by his pianist/cellist wife and the goofiness of Otto, their miniature schnauzer. The joyful chirping of Salt and Pepper, their owl finches, reverbs across their life. Raphael’s downtime is spent strumming his guitar, delving into video games, and pondering over theological ideas.
