Structural Engineer Assistant information

What are Structural Engineer Assistants?

Structural Engineer Assistants support structural engineers in designing, analyzing, and inspecting buildings, bridges, and other structures. Their responsibilities typically include preparing technical drawings, conducting site visits, assisting with calculations, and ensuring compliance with safety standards. They often work alongside engineers to gather data, create reports, and help resolve engineering problems, making them an essential part of any construction or civil engineering team.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Structural Engineer Assistant, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Structural Engineer Assistant, you need a background in civil or structural engineering, strong mathematical skills, and familiarity with engineering principles, often supported by a relevant degree or coursework. Proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit, and structural analysis software, along with knowledge of building codes, is typically required. Effective communication, attention to detail, and teamwork are essential soft skills for collaborating with engineers and ensuring project accuracy. These abilities are crucial for supporting efficient project design, compliance, and successful execution within engineering teams.

What are some typical challenges faced by a Structural Engineer Assistant when collaborating with senior engineers and architects?

As a Structural Engineer Assistant, one of the main challenges is effectively communicating technical information to both senior engineers and architects, who may have different priorities and perspectives. You may also need to balance multiple projects at once, ensuring that your work meets strict deadlines and complies with industry standards. Additionally, adapting to rapidly changing project requirements and learning to use specialized software under supervision are common aspects of the role. Building strong teamwork and organizational skills will help you overcome these challenges and contribute effectively to the design and analysis process.

What is the difference between Structural Engineer Assistant vs Civil Engineer?

AspectStructural Engineer AssistantCivil Engineer
Required CredentialsAssociate's or Bachelor's in Civil or Structural Engineering, internshipsBachelor's or higher in Civil Engineering, PE license often preferred
Work EnvironmentDesign offices, construction sites, engineering firmsConstruction sites, design offices, urban planning agencies
Employer & Industry UsageEngineering firms, construction companies, government agenciesConstruction, infrastructure, transportation, urban development

The Structural Engineer Assistant typically supports structural design and analysis under supervision, focusing on specific projects. Civil Engineers have broader responsibilities, including planning, design, and overseeing infrastructure projects. While both roles require similar educational backgrounds, Civil Engineers often hold professional licensure and handle more complex tasks across various engineering disciplines.

Job description

As part of the Water Design Center’s Structural Group, the Structural Engineer will be responsible for assisting in the development of Structural Designs in support of various Water Business Line projects. Generally, this responsibility will include structural support as required for a variety of water and wastewater projects, but the majority of the expected assignments will be related to developing structural designs for new water and wastewater treatments plants or improvements to existing water and wastewater treatment facilities.
The required structural support shall include developing detailed drawings and specifications as needed for each project. This will consist of developing detailed structural designs for water and wastewater treatment process basins, chemical facilities, administration buildings, site retaining walls, preparation of design calculations, coordination with other support discipline activities, coordination with regional offices and regulating agencies, construction cost estimating, and quality assurance and control. The Project Engineer will also assist the Group Leader in coordinating schedules, monitoring budgets, and ensuring delivery of quality work products which adhere to Garver standardization.
Qualified candidates must have the following capabilities and the ability to perform the following routine functions:
  • Be technically competent in aspects of structural engineering.
  • Work with a team of multi-disciplined (civil, process, structural, mechanical, electrical, and I amp;C) project engineers, design engineers, and CAD Technicians in the development of construction plans and specifications for water and wastewater treatment plant projects.
  • Work on multiple projects concurrently.
  • Assist in the development of project budgets including the development of detailed project instructions, scope of work, level of effort, and associated man-hour estimates.
  • Be responsible for time management and work product quality.
  • Keep accurate and up-to-date project accounting on all assigned projects.
  • Conduct written and oral project reporting for clients and team leader. Reporting will include project design status, upcoming milestones, project accounting, percent completes, progress reports, etc.
  • Assist in the preparation and execution of Quality Assurance and Quality Control Plans for water and wastewater treatment projects.
  • Assist with internal and external project workshops.
  • Be responsible for continuing education and learning based on project needs, as well as overall needs of the team.
The Project Engineer must have a strong knowledge base of engineering principals including concrete, steel, and masonry design. Knowledge of the provisions of the International Building Code and its referenced material Codes is preferred. Candidates must have strong technical problem solving and critical thinking skills, be self motivated, enjoy team oriented work, and have good oral and written communications. Candidates must have a basic understanding of the multi-discipline practices (i.e. process, surveying, geotechnical, structural, mechanical, electrical, instrumentation amp; control) required for the implementation of infrastructure capital improvements. Candidates must have strong communications skills as required to assist project teams and maintain internal client relationships. Candidates must be proficient with MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Project, and Outlook. Experience with AutoCad, Revit, or Microstation is preferred. Candidates must also have a basic knowledge of finite element modeling using plates and frame elements.
Some travel may be required, as projects may require field work for site assessment of project locations and support during construction.
Water Design Center (WDC)
Staffed with multi-disciplined engineers, scientists, designers, and technicians, the WDC provides high-performance teams for technical expertise in all project areas to successfully deliver sound solutions and customized quality designs. The WDC was created to bring together every unique discipline necessary to design custom solutions for water and wastewater treatment facilities and related infrastructure, including civil, environmental, process, mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, controls, construction, applications, and operations. Having a focused team with in-person collaboration using the latest 3D and 4D BIM software leads to more efficient delivery, shorter design schedules, and lower change order percentages.
Requirements:
  • Bachelor’s Degree in civil or structural engineering from an ABET accredited program
  • 1+ years of technical experience in structural design engineering
  • Basic understanding of structural engineering design in concrete, masonry, and structural steel
  • EIT or ability to obtain a PE registration with 24 months
Preferred Skills:
  • Master’s Degree in civil or structural engineering
  • Registration as a SE or be willing to take the NCEES Structural Engineer exam within 2 years
  • Working knowledge of Revit CAD programs
  • Structural complexities associated with water and wastewater treatment equipment
  • Working with a multi-disciplinary team comprised of process, structural, building mechanical, electrical, and Instrumentation and control disciplines.
  • Active participation in local professional trade organizations.
