Michael commenced his career as an Undergraduate Structural Engineer in 2007 with Wood & Grieve Engineers. Prior to graduation Michael completed his final year industry based thesis as a part of his work at Wood & Grieve Engineers.
Since then Michael has been responsible for all facets of the structural design process including conceptual design, client liaison, internal co-ordination of the design team, project documentation and site supervision.Working closely with Bubbledeck Australia, Michael was involved in the structural design of Australia’s first project to use the Bubbledeck voided slab system. Since completion of this project Michael has continued his working relationship with Bubbledeck Australia on various other projects.
Michael has proved to be a valuable asset to Wood & Grieve Engineers and in January 2012 became a Structural Project Engineer and an Associate of the firm in July 2013.
I pride myself on being able to work with our clients to provide efficient structural solutions that consider not only cost, but also speed of construction and constructability. I am a positive and proactive person and this flows through into my approach to projects. I adopt a solutions based ‘can do’ attitude from concept stage through to construction.
Michael is active and sociable person and on weekends can generally be found out about sampling all the food, drink and entertainment Perth has to offer. Michael also donates his time as committee member and teen mentor for the Uni Camp for Teens charity.

We have been extremely satisfied with the level of service provided by both structural team members, Eric Le Meur and Michael Ruescher, both of whom have consistently demonstrated their ability and willingness to resolve site issues quickly and efficiently.
We have always found structural documentation to be clear, accurate and easy to follow. The level of detailing is thorough and accounts for construction practicalities and site constraints.
Their pro-activeness in investigating alternative solutions when needed and their innovative approach to resolving design challenges has brought significant value to our projects from a cost and programme viewpoint. We also thoroughly enjoy the friendly and cooperative manner in which Eric and Michael conduct themselves and look forward to working together on many more projects to come.
