• Conduct civil engineering assessments of potential and existing project sites, reviewing site conditions including terrain, slopes, elevation, drainage, soil conditions, access, and existing infrastructure.
• Review topographic and geotechnical information and identify potential civil engineering constraints.
• Support the preliminary planning and development of access roads, drainage and erosion-control measures, turbine foundation areas, crane pads, hardstands, laydown and construction areas, temporary facilities, substation and transmission-related civil works, and other project facilities.
• Prepare or review preliminary civil concepts and layouts based on project requirements.
• Assess existing roads and access routes leading to project sites and review potential transportation routes for construction equipment and major components.
• Identify road, bridge, slope, turning-radius, clearance, and other access constraints.
• Review civil engineering drawings, plans, specifications, and technical reports, and identify technical issues or inconsistencies.
• Coordinate with surveyors and geotechnical consultants during project development and review topographic surveys, site measurements, and geotechnical reports.
• Conduct regular site visits and technical inspections to verify site conditions against drawings, surveys, reports, and proposed project layouts.
