24) Do you operate specific equipment? Please give brief examples. <br /> During the time spent performing survey duties the following equipment is <br /> operated: <br /> • Total Station Theodolites <br /> • Data collectors <br /> i Automatic differential levels <br /> • Laser levels <br /> • Global Positioning System survey equipment <br /> Drafting and design requires the use of the following equipment: <br /> • Hewlett Packard 1055 and 750 plotters <br /> • Desktop PCs <br /> • Copiers, printers and scanners <br /> Inspection duties require the use of the following: <br /> • La to Com uters or Pocket PCs <br /> P P P <br /> Estimated time spent: Often throughout the year <br /> 25) Do you usually work individually or in a team situation? <br /> Although a vast majority of the work performed during design of a project is done <br /> alone (approx. 95%), a team approach is the concept. Each person's work. <br /> serving as a plateau for other's to work from. <br /> Work on a survey crew in the field is 100% team work. No-one can do the work <br /> alone with the equipment and technology presently in use. <br /> <br /> - Project inspection is generally an individual task but often an inspection team is <br /> created. Many times a contractor is performing multiple tasks simultaneously and <br /> an Engineering Technician performing inspection duties can only cover one task <br /> at a time so another Engineering Technician will work on the project too. One will <br /> be performing air testing of a wastewater main line and the other will be <br /> inspecting a paving operation. <br /> .Estimated time spent: Working alone, 90% of each day. <br /> 26) Please give examples of special projects. <br /> I do not understand what is meant by this. <br /> Estimated time spent: <br /> 27) What activities do you perform independently? <br /> Engineering Technician Position Review 15 January 2004 <br /> <br />
