William Hoyle is a rock mechanics specialist with 10 years of hands-on experience in point cloud analysis, geotechnical core logging, and laboratory rock mechanics testing. Currently pursuing a MASc in Rock Mechanics at Queen’s University while working at WSP Canada, he develops algorithms and tools for extracting structural and mechanical properties from digitized rock surfaces and performs anisotropic kinematic assessments. His background includes extensive direct shear testing at CanmetMINING and validated lab programs using 3D-printed molds and grout replicas to verify analytical tools. William blends field, lab, and computational skills to quantify fracture behavior and directional mechanical variability—an uncommon combination that bridges practical testing standards with bespoke analytical software.
