  • Apply advanced CAD techniques, standards, and tools to develop accurate, high-quality design deliverables.
  • Work closely with bridge and transportation engineers and other designers to incorporate design changes, resolve drafting issues, and complete revisions.
  • Develop bridge plan components such as layouts, elevations, sections, structural details, grading, roadway tie-ins, and related transportation improvements.
  • Read and interpret construction plans, surveys, engineering markups, design criteria, and technical specifications.
  • Assist in preparing quantity takeoffs, construction estimates, and materials lists for bridge and transportation projects.
