What You'll Be DoingJob Summary: This scope of work is to provide Civil Site Development engineering design services that include grading plan design, hydrology and stormwater management systems design, roadway design, and erosion control planning and design associated with preparing construction drawing packages, calculations, and sketches.
Primary responsibilities will include but not be limited to: - Experience with AutoCAD Civil 3D for producing and preparing civil Site Development designs and construction drawing packages utilizing internally provided CAD templates, go-bys, and drafting standards.
- Limited travel may be required. Expectation for travel is for site familiarity needed to support engineering designs and drawing packages. May be required to provide photo documentation during these visits.
- Provide construction support as needed with respect to provided designs and construction drawings.
- Familiarity with and utilizing department design and drafting standards.
- Familiarity with project scope, specifications and design criteria upon assignment to a project task team.
- Developing conceptual layouts and cost studies as necessary to determine the simplest, most efficient approach to solving engineering tasks at hand.
- Producing estimate level preliminary designs and material take-offs suitable for the level of the estimate being performed on a project.
- Producing detail design calculations and sketches for materials of construction associated with the project. Calculations produced will be neatly prepared and organized for efficient checking by others and efficient use by drafters/designers for preparing drawings and as a deliverable when required.
- Producing designs with efficient use of construction materials with an overall emphasis on ease of construction and completed product meeting the expectations of the client.
- Checking calculations made by other engineers to ensure accuracy, conformance to codes, specifications, design criteria and conformance to good engineering practice.
- Assisting the drafting group in resolving routine layout and detailing problems. Responsibility to furnish sufficient sketches and details necessary for completion of engineering drawings.
- Consulting with design leaders from other disciplines to ensure the smooth flow of vital information necessary for the scheduled completion of the project.
- Advising the senior engineer concerning design or scope changes, which have been identified.
- Assisting other engineers in developing and assembling scopes, drawings and specifications into a "package", enabling civil/structural purchase inquiries to be issued for procurement of materials or subcontract pricing.
- Reviewing and checking vendor drawings and other discipline drawings for civil/structural input.
- Developing construction specifications.
- Reviewing fabrication drawings and other construction submittals for conformance to engineering drawings and specifications.
- Performing fieldwork necessary to gather field data, check tie-ins and provide construction support.
- Provide technical guidance to less experienced drafting and engineering personnel in the department.
- Able to lead small to medium size teams in coordinating civil/structural efforts and keeping the team focused on scope, schedule and budget.
- Developing small work sharing packages for interoffice execution support.
