  • Ensure hull structure drawings comply with project specifications, applicable classification society rules, marine standards, and shipyard construction requirements.
  • Participate in constructability reviews and identify potential structural conflicts, fabrication constraints, and assembly difficulties before execution.
  • Review production feedback and recommend appropriate structural modifications to facilitate fabrication, assembly, and erection activities.
  • Coordinate with engineering teams, production personnel, and other disciplines to ensure timely resolution of technical and structural issues.
  • Maintain updated structural drawings, technical records, and documentation in accordance with project procedures.
  • Support as-built drawing updates and incorporate final fabrication and production modifications, where required.
  • Ensure construction support design deliverables are completed within agreed project schedules and quality requirements.
