Assist with discipline man‑hour budgets; plan work to schedule and report progress, risks, and needed changes to the project manager.
Perform studies, load calculations, and equipment selection appropriate to the project design; review work for technical accuracy before QA/QC.
Respond to contractor and supplier questions during bid and construction; review shop drawings and submittals.
Conduct site visits to monitor progress and observe installed construction; comment based on design specifications, owner expectations, and codes.
