Prepare detailed design of civil steel structures

Assessment Task 

In this activity, you must discuss with the site supervisor to obtain the structure design and report on the work requirements.

Role of the participants

Site Supervisor
Your classmates will act as the site supervisor with whom you will have a meeting to obtain the site designs and steel structure designs. The person will also provide information about the work requirements and tasks that must be performed. The person will also clarify the work activities and provide confirmation as well.

Design Manager
You will act as the design manager who will obtain the site design and steel structure design from the site supervisor. You will also access documents such as organisational policies, procedures, and standards associated with civil construction.

You will access and interpret the documents gathered and seek clarification from the supervisor where required. While reading the documents, you must also prepare a design plan to meet the resources and design requirements.

You will use Autodesk to prepare the steel structure's design plan after interpreting and clarifying the doubts from the documents gathered from the supervisor.

For this activity, you are required to complete the following:
• Gather documents from the supervisor
• Seek clarification about the documents
• Gather information about the work activities
• Obtain confirmation about work activities and if it is compliant
• Prepare design plan as per requirements
Resources required
Your trainer will provide you with the following documents and software:
• Autodesk
• Plans
• Drawings
• Specifications
• Design briefs
• Engineering surveys
• Geotechnical information
• Hydrological, meteorological, cultural and heritage data
• Test results of construction materials for civil steel structures
• Data for selecting options for civil steel structures
You will be required to complete and/or attach.
You will be required to complete the meeting with the site supervisor and prepare the design plan using Autodesk.

TASK Instructions
Your task is to prepare the following documentation drawings and specifications. Please refer to the sketch below as a guideline.

Obtain information and data for the civil steel structure design, analyse and interpret the information, and sketch some design options before discussing your options with the Supervisor. Your Supervisor will make a recommendation and assist you with the final design so you can then commence the Required drawings and specifications.

Once the final sketch design is approved, complete the drawing below. Once the drawings have been completed, they will be reviewed with the relevant stakeholders (i.e. Supervisor (Trainer), council authority (student colleagues)), and feedback will be given.

Once you have contributed to the design verification and all stakeholders are satisfied with your final design, confirmation will be given.
Your stakeholders (i.e. colleagues) will complete a performance review on completion and approval of your design.

The sketch design of the factory that has been provided is to be amended following the instructions in the information below and as instructed. Note that this information will also be required to prepare the engineering detail drawing and the architectural drawings of the factory that comprise the remainder of the documentation exercises in this subject.
