PROJECT ENGINEER
1. Distribute and Manage Drawings:
Shop Drawings Submission:
Submit shop drawings to the Engineer of Record (EOR) for review, signing, and sealing.
Track the progress of these submissions to ensure the EOR completes the review promptly.
Importance: These drawings provide detailed information on materials, and installation procedures. Timely submission ensures the project adheres to the timeline.
2. Permit Submission:
Permit Submissions:
Submit both physical and digital permit set drawings to the local building department for review and approval.
Monitor the review process by staying in contact with the building department, tracking the timeline, and addressing any comments or revisions needed.
Importance: Permits are essential for legal compliance, and any delays can affect the project timeline. Timely management of this process is crucial.
3. Design Coordination:
Coordinating with Design Teams:
Work closely with the design teams (architects, structural engineers, etc.) to address any design challenges or necessary changes that arise during the project.
Facilitate smooth communication between different design stakeholders to minimize design conflicts.
Importance: Effective coordination ensures that potential issues are resolved early, avoiding costly rework or delays during construction.
4. Project Approval:
Distribute Shop Drawings and Submittals:
Distribute all shop drawings and submittals to the General Contractor (GC) for approval.
Ensure the Architect of Record (AOR), EOR, and Private Provider review and approve these documents.
Address any feedback or required changes in a timely manner.
Importance: Approval of these documents ensures that construction can proceed with the full confidence of all involved parties. This helps avoid miscommunication and potential errors during the build.
5. Inspection Management:
Scheduling and Tracking Inspections:
Schedule and manage all inspections for the project, ensuring they are completed in a timely manner.
Conduct walkthroughs with building inspectors and document the results in detailed reports.
Follow up on any issues raised during inspections and ensure they are resolved before re-inspection.
Importance: Regular inspections ensure that the construction is in line with building codes, approved designs, and best practices. Effective management of this process is crucial to maintaining project momentum.
6. Ensuring Compliance with Approved Designs:
Monitor Construction:
Ensure that construction work is in accordance with the approved designs and best construction practices.
Conduct regular site visits to verify that work is proceeding as per the project plans.
Importance: This minimizes errors and ensures the construction meets the required standards for safety and functionality.
7. Meetings Coordination:
Schedule Meetings:
Coordinate meetings with plan reviewers, contractors, and other stakeholders to resolve any issues or comments regarding the project.
Ensure that meetings are productive, addressing and resolving any outstanding concerns or challenges.
Importance: Effective meeting management ensures that any roadblocks are identified and resolved promptly, keeping the project on track.
8. RFI Management (Request for Information):
Tracking and Managing RFIs:
Use project management software, such as Procore, to track and manage all Requests for Information (RFIs) related to the project.
Ensure that RFIs are addressed in a timely manner to avoid delays or confusion.
Importance: Properly managing RFIs ensures clear communication between the construction team, design professionals, and clients, which helps to keep the project aligned with the original design intent.
Tools and Software:
Procore: Used for tracking RFIs, submittals, and managing overall project documentation.
Building Information Modeling (BIM): Useful for coordinating design and construction documentation.
AutoCAD or BlueBeam: For reviewing and managing design drawings.
Asana: For scheduling and timeline management.
