Since the mid-1970s, Cameel Halim and his wife, Hoda, have invested in real estate in Chicago and the surrounding metropolitan area. Before launching his career in real estate, Cameel Halim worked as a licensed structural engineer in the State of Illinois.
A specialty within the field of civil engineering, structural engineering involves the analysis of physical forces within the context of an existing structure. By performing careful calculations of all contributing force-resisting elements, structural engineers can determine the types of forces a structure can sustain without compromising its integrity. Although most people associate structural engineers with skyscrapers and bridges, these professionals also work with everyday objects like chairs and windows. To become a licensed structural engineer, individuals must first receive their professional engineering license by completing education requirements and a licensing exam. Depending on the state, professional engineers must often acquire several years of additional work experience before applying for a structural engineering license, which enables them to work on buildings like schools and hospitals.
