Yerucham has over 45 years’ experience as a Structural Draftsman. He began his career on the drawing board, producing structural drawings of private villas, before moving to YSS Engineers, where he worked for 29 years. He developed computerised CAD standards, coordinating the new method of working for the Ben-Gurion 2000 Airport project, which was a first for Israel.

He joined Kedmor in 2009, and pioneered BIM, creating and maintaining the Revit Standards. Here, he has worked on the design of numerous buildings and bridges, both in Israel and internationally, most recently the IBI Bridge in Nigeria, the Karmiel-Kiryat Shmona Railway and a number of road structures, such as a pedestrian bridge and underpass along Road 461, as part of the Purple-Line project. An expert on bridge projects, Yerucham has been involved with a variety of construction methods including balanced cantilever and incremental launching.
