INDUSTRY EXPECTATIONS

Once you know the industry expectations, you can prepare yourself. Isn't it? Here is the guidance for you.

There are primarily six work areas in which industry expects you to be skilled, as given below.It is based on inputs from multiple industry experts. Industry expects you to be ready to work from day one of the job. You are expected to already be trained as they would not have time to train you. Know the trending skills and prepare yourself.

Desired

Areas of

 Technical Expertise

As a civil engineer, your industry expects you be skilled in following work areas:

  • 2D Drafting

  • 3D Modelling and Detailing

  • Foundation Design and Analysis

  • Estimation, and

  • Construction management (PPM)

Prepare for all these areas to shine out in booming phase of the Civil industry.

All the Best!

Civil industry expectation

REQUIRED DRAFTING SKILLS

It is used to draw floor plans, elevations, section, detailing of RCC, etc. For all practical purposes (e.g., design, construction, inspection, etc.) 2D drawing sheets are printed and distributed. These are mostly drawn in AutoCAD and AutoRebar. You must plan to be expert in same.

LATEST 3D MODELING SKILLS

3D modeling has two primary purposes. First one is to ensure accurate engineering design and construction. The second purpose is to validate the aesthetic appearance. Look at the industry favorite tools in use.

RevitArch

Revit Arch.

Revit Architecture is an engineering software used for multiple purposes, including estimation.

3DSMax

3DS Max

It is non-engineering software but very powerful for aesthetic usage. Widely used in Interior and exterior design

Google sketchup

Google Sketchup

It is non-engineering conceptualization tool, good for beginners. 

MANDATORY SKILLS - STRUCTURAL DESIGN

A civil engineer  cannot be called a civil engineer if found weak in this area. Isn't it?

Get to know what is trending in industry and cover it completely to rock in the job.
