Civil Engineering Technician career episode

The Career episodes for Engineers Australia should follow the guidelines with a fair number of words. The report displays the problems and challenges you face while operating the project and the solution applied.

Civil Engineering Technician Career Episode Report.

Project Name: Experimental Analysis of Glass Fiber in Concrete.
In the first Career Episode, the author explains the project he carried out and the fulfilment of his degree in civil engineering. The project was titled “Experimental Analysis of Glass Fiber in Concrete” and his roles were:

• To study the properties along with the usage and types of Fibre-reinforced concrete (FRC) and other material properties such as cement, aggregate (coarse and fine), and so forth.
• To develop a methodology according to the time frame available for the execution of the project to avoid anomalies and inconsistencies at the time of the project.
• To select the materials required for the project such as cement, aggregate, glass fibre, GFC and water.
• To perform mathematical calculations for various components of the project. To calculate the values of density, particular surface area, aspect ratio, length, specific gravity, and diameter of the filament.
• To mix the design for experimental analysis of glass fibre in concrete. To design the mixing solution of various materials such as cement, aggregate, glass fibre, and water.
• To conduct the slump test and a droop test of cement under gravity’s action.
• To analyze the project and plot the graph for a percentage of glass fibre versus compression strength and percentage of glass fibre versus split tensile test.

Civil Engineering Technician Career Episode Report.

Project Name: Low-Energy and Passive Buildings Economics of New Technologies.
In the second Career Episode, the author explains the engineering skills he used in the project he was involved in for a duration of a year as a civil engineer technician. His responsibilities and duties in this project “Low-Energy and Passive Buildings Economics of New Technologies” were:

• To save energy in the building industry.
• To describe passive house development in detail with a focus on the construction part of buildings with low energy consumption.
• To design construction compositions in the two energy standards for a few selected construction systems.
• To evaluate from the different points of view and comparison to each other.
• To give an estimate of passive house value and return of extra investments with regards to increasing the energy price.
• To prepare a proposal for the schedule of the work as well as cost.

Civil Engineering Technician Career Episode Report

Project Name: Construction of a Solid 3D Model of Geology in Sardinia Using GIS Methods.
In the third Career Episode, the author describes the project titled “Construction of a Solid 3D Model of Geology in Sardinia Using GIS Methods” in which he was involved for 24 months as an intern. His duties and responsibilities in this project were:

• To visualize an area to complete their research.
• To demonstrate the way of distributing sample data over the area so as to apply it to validate the result.
• To utilize the flexible software along with surfer and voxler.
• To gather a smaller number of points of data gathered per volume for investigating geology and mineralogy characteristics of the area.
• To monitor the project’s progress constantly and provide any kind of suggestions

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Sample for CDR

The CPD format for Engineers Australia list to be included with CDR Report includes professional courses, non-professional courses and private study. The author’s Mechanical Engineering Knowledge is judged based on the CPD sample Engineers Australia provided to EA.

Civil Engineering Technician CDR Summary Statement Sample:

For CDR summary statement Report, the summary statement written by the author represents all the competency elements required as a Civil Engineering Technician Engineer. As guided by the Engineers Australia migration skills assessment booklet, the summary statement comprises cross-references to the relevant paragraph of the episodes. The Summary Statement written with Competency Demonstration Report Engineers Australia sample must be in accordance with the requirements of Engineers Australia.
