involved in construction operations.
Site engineers apply designs and plans to mark out the site and can be involved in
projects ranging from small scale to multi-million pound ventures. This may include
civil, road, rail and other infrastructure projects.
A site engineer works as part of the site management team liaising with and
working alongside architects, engineers, construction managers, supervisors,
planners, surveyors and subcontractors. They share responsibility for site security,
health and safety, and the organization and supervision of material and human
resources.

There are many job duties which are included in civil engineer's job description.
Nations are destroyed by wars and created by politicians, but they can only be built
by a civil engineer. So following are the civil engineer job duties
•Construction Site Investigation: A civil engineer needs to thoroughly investigate
the construction sites on which the construction work is going to happen. Every
minute detail must be comprehended.
•Feasibility Study: Feasibility is more important than location. Great priority has to
be given for feasibility.
•Technical Study: The technicalities involved should have heavy consideration.
•Detailed Design Development: Before starting any work, a civil engineer must
understand the architectural drafting and design. Finer details of the design can be
developed in accordance with the set guidelines.
•Risk Analysis: Human life should never be put at risk. The construction work should
be safe for both, workers and users of the facility.
•Risk Management: In any construction work, some aspects require risk taking.
When the risk cannot be avoided, it is imperative that the risk is manageable. The
risk management process is very important.
•Personnel Management: Leadership qualities are expected of a civil engineer. He
should be able to deal with various personalities. Any issues that arise with the
personnel must be handled with care and hence personnel management is a very
important asset that he should possess.
•Labor Management: A civil engineer should have the capability of explaining any
issue to the laborers. Laborers should always work at their optimum capacity. This is
ensured by a civil engineer.
•Introducing Logic and Creativity in Design Issues: When there is a problem in
design, the solutions should always be logical. Creativity should be used to optimize
those solutions
•Budget and Equipment Management: If the resources are proving to be too costly,
then the civil engineer must be ready with the way out. Read more on equipment
management.
•Equipment Purchase: Faulty equipments are the major cause of any accidents
happening at the construction site. It is a civil engineer's responsibility to check the
quality of equipments.
•Deadline Management: The project must be finished within the stipulated dead
line.
•Safety Management: The burden of the safety of man and material has to be
shouldered by a civil engineer. Read more on why is project management
important?
Analyze survey reports, maps, drawings, blueprints, aerial photography, and other
topographical or geologic data to plan projects.
Compute load and grade requirements, water flow rates, and material stress factors
to determine design specifications.
Test soils and materials to determine the adequacy and strength of foundations,
concrete, asphalt, or steel.
Critical Thinking -- Using logic and reasoning to identify the strengths and
weaknesses of alternative solutions, conclusions or approaches to problems.
Active Listening -- Giving full attention to what other people are saying, taking
time to understand the points being made, asking questions as appropriate, and not
interrupting at inappropriate times.
Judgment and Decision Making -- Considering the relative costs and benefits of
potential actions to choose the most appropriate one.
Near Vision -- The ability to see details at close range (within a few feet of the
observer).
Speech Clarity -- The ability to speak clearly so others can understand you.
Visualization -- The ability to imagine how something will look after it is moved
around or when its parts are moved or rearranged.
Originality -- The ability to come up with unusual or clever ideas about a given
topic or situation, or to develop creative ways to solve a problem.

ADDITIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES
1. Provide technical presentations to elected officials, appointed
boards/commissions, the public, and staff.
2. Function as chief inspector on engineering projects.
3. Provide on-the-job training to new staff.
WORKING CONDITIONS
Working conditions are normal for an office environment. Work requires local travel.
Work may require evening and weekend work.
The civil engineer must also plan the construction project that will be taking place in
conjunction with the results they found due to their analysis of the proposed
project. During the process and at the end, the civil engineer must inspect the
product to ensure that all rules, regulations and guidelines have been explicitly
followed.
When they have adequately analyzed the situation, they will write detailed reports
stating what is acceptable and what needs to be changed prior to beginning the
project. Once these proposed changes have been made, the civil engineer will
review the plans and project site once again to ensure that all changes have been
made as required.
The job of a civil engineer does not end at this point. The civil engineer will follow
the project from start to finish and make any necessary changes along the way.
They will ensure that procedure is being followed and check on safety features of
the project during the time it is being completed.
A civil engineer must use many different equations, applications and figures to
ensure the proper procedure application. Items that civil engineers must take part
in and use include chemical testing applications, drafting and design software,
electrical test devices and equipment, land surveying techniques and the metric
system, to name just a few pertinent items.
The civil engineer must also be certain to follow land use laws and regulations every
step of the way. This is extremely important as one who does not abide by such
rules and regulations may find that the project is stalled, either temporarily or
permanently. Therefore, a specific duty of a civil engineer is to know the pertinent
land use laws and regulations and to follow them consistently.
One who is a civil engineer is also the key contact person regarding the construction
project in many cases. They will answer questions directed towards them by
individuals involved with the construction project and the general public as well.
While answering questions, they will also be responsible for backing up their
statements with reports, graphs, charts and surveys.
Good analytical skills are a must for any civil engineer. Civil engineers have to read
and interpret many complex charts, diagrams, maps and reports. By having
superior analytical skills, one who fills this job role will find that they can complete
their daily job duties in an effective and efficient manner. One who does not have
good analytical skills may have a hard time in the role of a civil engineer.
Above average communication skills are also a good thing for civil engineers to
possess. Civil engineers need to correspond with a wide array of individuals
throughout their profession. They will have to deal with everyone from construction
workers to CEOs of large corporations. Therefore, it is imperative that a civil
engineer possesses above average communication skills as this will allow them to
communicate effectively with individuals involved in the job.
One who is a civil engineer should also possess excellent problem solving
capabilities. The role of a civil engineer is not an easy one. There will be problems
that arise from time to time which the civil engineer will be responsible for fixing.
With that said, one who works as a civil engineer should have impeccable problem
solving skills. They need to be able to survey potential or full-blown problems and
come up with a solution for such problems as quickly as possible. Since most
construction jobs are on a stringent time schedule, it is important to not only be
able to solve the problems that arise but to do so in a quick and speedy fashion.
