Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical engineers are
involved in construction projects that rely heavily on specialized tools and
machinery. This implies they must have knowledge of machinery used in
construction, as well as their maintenance. A mechanical engineer’s duties
include the following:
- Supervising
and monitoring the installation, dismantling and maintenance of project
machinery
- Testing
and inspecting tools for possible defects
- Making
sure all machines meet safety requirements
- Interpreting
construction designs and breaking them into digestible chunks for their
fellow engineers
- Providing
technical support in times of need
