TSD's CADD manager is responsible for the production of technical
drawings for both engineering and surveying projects. These drawings
are produced in Intergraph MicroStation and AutoCad. The CADD
manager, working with registered engineers and surveyors, schedules
the CADD Technicians she supervises, reviews their work and keeps
current with appropriate standards, making sure her staff is utilizing
them. She has performed courthouse research; reduced survey notes;
assisted with mathematical calculations for roadway alignments,
drainage design, earthwork, site layouts, right-of-way and quantity
takeoffs; and produced drawings both manually and via CADD. Staff
in the CADD Department produces drawings with the following information:
survey computations; Right-of-Way resolution; geometric design
of roadways; cross-sections; cover sheets; typical sections: Right-of-Way,
construction maintenance, signing and striping, utility, preliminary
and final construction plans, drainage maps and etc.
COMPUTER KNOWLEDGE:
Most of the design and development is done by our Engineers on
personal computers connected to a local network, utilizing specialized
design and planning software (CAiCE, CLM CEAL, Microstation, Highway
Capacity Software, HY-8, WSPRO, MS Word, MS Excel, Word Perfect,
MS Project, Lotus, AutoCAD, HEC-2, Geopak, and Terramodel).
