ATOMIC
Produce drawings, using computer-assisted drafting systems (CAD) or drafting machines, or by hand, using compasses, dividers, protractors, triangles, and other drafting devices.
ATOMIC
Draft plans and detailed drawings for structures, installations, and construction projects, such as highways, sewage disposal systems, and dikes, working from sketches or notes.
ATOMIC
Coordinate structural, electrical, and mechanical designs and determine a method of presentation to graphically represent building plans.
ATOMIC
Analyze building codes, by-laws, space and site requirements, and other technical documents and reports to determine their effect on architectural designs.
ATOMIC
Draw maps, diagrams, and profiles, using cross-sections and surveys, to represent elevations, topographical contours, subsurface formations, and structures.
ATOMIC
Lay out and plan interior room arrangements for commercial buildings, using computer-assisted drafting (CAD) equipment and software.
ATOMIC
Supervise and train other technologists, technicians, and drafters.
ATOMIC
Determine the order of work and method of presentation, such as orthographic or isometric drawing.
ATOMIC
Finish and duplicate drawings and documentation packages according to required mediums and specifications for reproduction, using blueprinting, photography, or other duplicating methods.
ATOMIC
Draw rough and detailed scale plans for foundations, buildings, and structures, based on preliminary concepts, sketches, engineering calculations, specification sheets, and other data.
ATOMIC
Correlate, interpret, and modify data obtained from topographical surveys, well logs, and geophysical prospecting reports.
ATOMIC
Check dimensions of materials to be used and assign numbers to lists of materials.
ATOMIC
Determine procedures and instructions to be followed, according to design specifications and quantity of required materials.
ATOMIC
Supervise or conduct field surveys, inspections, or technical investigations to obtain data required to revise construction drawings.
ATOMIC
Explain drawings to production or construction teams and provide adjustments as necessary.
ATOMIC
Obtain and assemble data to complete architectural designs, visiting job sites to compile measurements as necessary.
ATOMIC
Determine quality, cost, strength, and quantity of required materials, and enter figures on materials lists.
ATOMIC
Locate and identify symbols on topographical surveys to denote geological and geophysical formations or oil field installations.
ATOMIC
Create freehand drawings and lettering to accompany drawings.
ATOMIC
Calculate excavation tonnage and prepare graphs and fill-hauling diagrams for use in earth-moving operations.
ATOMIC
Prepare colored drawings of landscape and interior designs for presentation to client.
ATOMIC
Calculate weights, volumes, and stress factors and their implications for technical aspects of designs.
ATOMIC
Plot characteristics of boreholes for oil and gas wells from photographic subsurface survey recordings and other data, representing depth, degree, and direction of inclination.
ATOMIC
Reproduce drawings on copy machines or trace copies of plans and drawings, using transparent paper or cloth, ink, pencil, and standard drafting instruments.
ATOMIC
Calculate heat loss and gain of buildings and structures to determine required equipment specifications, following standard procedures.
ATOMIC
Prepare cost estimates, contracts, bidding documents, and technical reports for specific projects under an architect's or engineer's supervision.
ATOMIC
Represent architect or engineer on construction site, ensuring builder compliance with design specifications and advising on design corrections, under supervision.
