You'll also prepare engineering studies and schematic designs for new systems and analyze the operation of existing systems. Some drawings you'll create yourself, and other sketches will be incorporated into drawings by drafters. You may create specialized drawings such as electrical riser diagrams. Knowledge of local codes and industry-standard equipment and the ability to specify it for proper applications is important. You'll also do estimating, review contractor applications for payments, review construction budgets, and coordinate document completion. You'll regularly connect with clients to ensure satisfaction and build relationships.
