• Produce CAD and BIM deliverables for stormwater drainage and wet utility infrastructure.
• Develop engineering drawings from design sketches, calculations, markups, and general technical information.
• Prepare basic arrangements, layouts, assemblies, flow sheets, isometrics, and component details.
• Maintain drafting standards and ensure deliverables are completed within agreed project timelines.
• Support BIM activities from project initialization through design completion.
• Apply established BIM processes across model creation, coordination, review, and issue stages.
• Check drawings for readability, completeness, presentation, and technical consistency.
• Follow company QA/QC procedures before models or drawings are submitted.
• Create project-specific parametric families where intelligent BIM content is required.
• Produce non-parametric families and supporting content for simpler project elements.
• Apply appropriate Level of Development requirements to model elements.
• Maintain consistent object information and model organization.
• Use Autodesk Navisworks for federated model review.
• Perform clash detection between drainage, wet utilities, structures, roads, and other disciplines.
• Prepare clash reports and communicate coordination issues to relevant design teams.
• Assist with resolution and closure of identified model conflicts.
• Generate schedules from BIM models where required.
• Extract model-based quantities to support engineering and design reviews.
• Check extracted quantities for consistency with model geometry and design information.
