- Perform geostructural analysis and design of waterfront structures, including bulkheads, deep foundations, retaining walls, and flood control structures
- Interpret field test data (SPT, sCPT, FVST, DMT) and estimate soil engineering properties for design
- Assigns lab tests and interpret results
- Estimates deep foundation lateral and axial capacities
- Designs bulkheads, retaining walls, and floodwalls
- Designs wall structural components, including wales, tierods, tiebacks, cap beams, etc.
- Develops plans and specifications
- Help resolve design problems that may include performing field investigation or inspections, detailed design work, and detailed checking of design computations done by others, or general coordination of specific design aspects into a project
- Calculates construction quantity estimates
- Works closely with other architects, engineers, scientists, project managers, etc. on multi-discipline projects
- Performs office-based construction administration including review of shop drawings and technical submittals
