Survey Engineer -Construction

Key Skills Required

• Experience as Survey Engineer with Roads/Bridge/Culvert/Drain and Sewer Network.
• Route and alignment design understanding
• Proficiency in coordinate geometry (COGO)
• Good knowledge of road and pipeline construction methodology
• Accuracy in setting out long linear infrastructure
• Problem-solving in field adjustments or conflicts

1. Pre-Construction Phase

• Route Surveying:
• Conduct detailed alignment surveys to determine the most suitable path for roads or pipelines.
• Perform reconnaissance surveys to identify physical, legal, or environmental obstacles along the proposed route.
• Topographical Surveys:
• Map existing terrain, contours, utilities, drainage features, and structures to inform design.
• Land Acquisition Surveys:
• Mark property boundaries, easements, and right-of-way (ROW) limits.

2. Construction Phase

• Setting Out / Layout Work:
• Precisely mark:
• Road centerlines, edges, shoulders
• Pipeline alignments (both horizontal and vertical)
• Culverts, bridges, manholes, valve chambers, etc.
• Earthwork & Grading:
• Provide levels and benchmarks for cut and fill operations.
• Guide excavation and embankment processes to meet design levels and slopes.
• Utility Coordination:
• Locate and map existing utilities to prevent damage during excavation.
• Mark crossings or deviations for pipelines.
• Pipeline Specific Tasks:
• Stake bends, joints, valves, tees, and crossings as per engineering drawings.
• Ensure correct depth and slope for gravity or pressure pipelines.
• Quality Control:
• Conduct as-built surveys to verify construction is as per design.
• Identify and report any deviations or settlement issues.

3. Post-Construction

• As-Built Documentation:
• Prepare final as-built drawings showing the actual locations, elevations, and dimensions of installed infrastructure.
• Final Topography:
• Survey and document the finished terrain and infrastructure.
• Handover Records:
• Submit survey files (CAD, GIS, coordinate lists) for archiving and future maintenance.

4. Technical & Reporting Duties

• Instrument Operation:
• Use total stations, RTK GPS/GNSS, drones, auto/digital levels.
• Software Use:
• Process and analyse data using:
• AutoCAD Civil 3D
• GIS
• Survey Pro, Leica Infinity, etc.
• Reporting:
• Submit daily/weekly progress reports, survey logs, and coordinate sheets to project managers and design teams.

5. Safety & Compliance

• Site Safety: Ensure proper safety practices while working near heavy machinery, roads, or trenches.
• Regulatory Compliance: Adhere to government standards and specifications for roads and pipelines (e.g., slope tolerances, pipe bedding, ROW limits).
