Egis

The Role

Overview

Prepare detailed 2D/3D rail and road design drawings using MicroStation

Key Responsibilities

  • microstation
  • cad drafting
  • construction drawings
  • as-built
  • coordination
  • quality control

Tasks

-MicroStation Expertise Utilize Bentley MicroStation V8i / CONNECT Edition for drafting and design. Manage reference files, levels, and sheet models to maintain model integrity. Implement CAD standards and workflows, including layer management, symbology, and annotation styles. Support the integration of BIM processes where applicable. -CAD Drafting & Drawing Preparation Prepare detailed 2D and 3D drawings for rail and road projects, including: Track layouts and alignment plans Cross-sections and longitudinal profiles Roadway plans and typical sections Civil and structural layouts related to transportation projects Ensure drawings comply with project standards, codes, and client requirements. Create and maintain drawing templates, title blocks, and CAD libraries for efficient workflows. -Key Deliverables: Approved construction and shop drawings for rail and road projects. Updated as-built drawings at project handover. Well-organized drawing sets that align with project documentation standards. Drafting support for design submissions, approvals, and client presentations. -Collaboration & Coordination Work closely with engineers, survey teams, and designers to ensure design intent is accurately captured in drawings. Coordinate with other disciplines such as structures, drainage, and utilities for clash-free, integrated outputs. Support design teams during design reviews, approvals, and stakeholder presentations. -Quality Control & Documentation Perform self-checks on drawings to maintain accuracy and compliance. Ensure drawings are version-controlled and properly documented. Assist in compiling as-built drawings at the completion of projects.
