ZAPATA is pleased to announce Mr. Wooseok Ahn, PE has joined the firm in its Atlanta, Georgia office.

Mr. Ahn graduated from the University of North Florida with a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering. He holds a North Carolina Stream Buffer Identification Certificate and National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Level 1B & Level II Certificates.
At ZAPATA, Mr. Ahn will provide civil designs of a variety of projects that include surveying, site plans, stormwater management and drainage, utilities, horizontal infrastructure (roads), and erosion control requirements—all to support of the firm’s military, commercial, and industrial clients.

Prior to joining ZAPATA, Mr. Ahn served as a senior civil engineer employed by the City of Atlanta, Georgia.

Mr. Ahn understands project requirements and design specifications for construction materials, site preparation, grading, concrete pours, soil erosion, and sedimentation controls to ensure each project passes testing requirements and construction inspections. He is experienced in quality control and quality assurance (QC/QA) for construction materials testing, such as soil, concrete, asphalt, aggregate, reinforcing steel, and masonry in compliance with ASTM, AASHTO, ACI, and GDOT standards requirements.
