Duties of Civil Site Engineer and Their Responsibilities in Construction at Site.

 hey guys welcome to civil mentor in this

blog

you gonna learn the roles and

responsibilities of civil site engineer

and construction so let's get started

roles and responsibilities of a civil

site engineer depends on the nature of

construction works in a project and

involves various activities such as

quality control and reporting as the

activities carried out in construction

industry is highly dynamic in nature

different decisions and actions have to

be carried out unexpectedly these sudden

actions are mostly carried out by the

site in charge or the civil site

engineer at construction site this means

that the roles and responsibilities of a

civil site engineer is not specific for

every construction site

these changes based on the activities

and site conditions of the project but

in brief the site engineer must possess

certain basic roles and responsibilities

for the execution and completion of the

project the site engineer should possess

basic knowledge about the practical

construction procedures at site along

with the details of how they are planned

this idea of planning and coordination

will help him to have proper execution

of the activities at the site with

desired performance a site engineer is

very essential for a construction

project the responsibilities of a site

engineer are wide as he must provide

sufficient advice and supervision when

there are any technical issues the

responsibilities that is put on a site

engineer in construction is mentioned

briefly in this blog

number one construction site

responsibilities the site engineer is

the person who spends most of his time

at the construction site compared with

other managers or designers site

engineers are updated daily about the

coming days design and activities based

on which he implements the met site the

top members of the construction

organization get a clearer picture about

the daily activities happening at the

site through the site engineer number

two traveling the site engineers are

supposed to move from one site to

another for any special needs based on

the size of the project or the number of

projects he must also be required to

reach with the procurement of resources

to get the materials as for the correct

specifications if any discrepancies

happen this means every sector of

activities say its design materials or

execution the site engineer has the role

of advice number three technical

activities site activities like

establishment of a level and the survey

control which is required for the

control of contracts must be performed

by site engineer in required conditions

the works have to be set out as per the

contract drawings

this requires checks at regular basis on

the construction site the records

maintained have to be accurate and they

have to satisfy with the organizational

and the legal requirements the site

engineer has to face any unexpected

difficulties raised from the technical

side at any point of time he must study

the problem and resolve it in the most

efficient manner as possible

number four preparation of reports and

schedules the site engineer is the one

who have to ensure that the site have

adequate resources to complete the tasks

this is conducted by having procurement

schedules for the jobs carried out and

leaves with the procurement department

regarding the same a report on the

future works to be carried out at site

are prepared and produced by site

engineers two weeks ahead this is

carried out in conjunction with the site

agent the site engineer is responsible

for keeping site Diaries and the

respective sheets for allocation number

five site engineer for health and safety

for highly dangerous work site the site

engineer will take up the role of safety

engineer he has to ensure that the work

carried out by the workers and other

related activities are as for the safety

regulation of the respective state or

area every construction organization

must possess a safe working culture and

practice its implementation and practice

of following is supervised by the site

engineers there may be other safety

health officers for the organization but

ensuring safety is a common need number

six

Quality Assurance by site engineer as we

know quality is a parameter that have to

be kept in practice from the initial

stage of planning to the end of the

project the major issues with design and

documentation can be corrected during

the construction by the site engineer

based on advice from the structural

engineers any undesirable activities in

construction brings high loss of quality

and money number seven

communication and leadership duties as

the site engineer have to know the

technical details from the above levels

and make it in practice at the site

he must be efficient enough to

coordinate the information that is

communicated he must take up the detail

from the higher levels accurately and

pass them to the below contractors

supervisors or labor workers it's not

how efficiently you as a site engineer

understand the idea but it's on how you

convey it to your sub workers this will

reflect to have the need for a

leadership quality to convey and make

the workers do                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

that's all for today see you in the next thanks.
