Surveyor

The Structural Steel Surveyor responsible for carrying out accurate surveying and dimensional control activities for structural steel erection works, ensuring that steel structures are installed in accordance with approved drawings, specifications, project tolerances, and required levels and coordinates. Key Responsibilities • Carry out pre-installation surveys to verify existing foundations, anchor bolts, columns, supports, and reference points before structural steel erection. • Establish and maintain survey control points, benchmarks, grid lines, coordinates, and elevations at the project site. • Conduct surveys during and after steel erection to verify: Column locations and alignment Column verticality/plumbness Beam and girder elevations Structural grid alignment Connection locations Base plate and anchor bolt positions Building dimensions and levels Overall structural geometry • Monitor structural steel erection tolerances and immediately highlight any deviations beyond the specified/project tolerance. • Provide survey support during steel erection, alignment, plumbing, leveling, bolting, welding, and final adjustment activities. • Carry out surveys for temporary works, lifting/erection arrangements, crane positioning, and structural interfaces where required. • Verify dimensions and coordinates against approved IFC/shop drawings and relevant project requirements. • Prepare survey reports, inspection records, as-built surveys, alignment reports, and dimensional control reports. • Record actual site coordinates, levels, offsets, and deviations accurately for project documentation. • Coordinate with the Construction, Engineering, QA/QC, Planning, and Project teams regarding survey requirements and discrepancies. • Assist the engineering team in identifying clashes, dimensional discrepancies, fabrication errors, and site condition differences before or during erection. • Support preparation of as-built drawings by providing accurate survey data. • Maintain daily survey records and ensure all survey data is properly documented and traceable. • Carry out final structural surveys and provide data required for project handover and closeout documentation. • Diploma / Degree in Surveying, Civil Engineering, Geomatics, or related field. • Minimum 5 years of relevant experience in structural steel, steel erection, industrial, commercial, or large-scale construction projects. • Strong experience in structural steel dimensional control and erection surveys. • Good knowledge of structural steel drawings, shop drawings, IFC drawings, grid systems, coordinates, levels, and erection tolerances. • Experience with Total Station and AutoCAD is essential. • UAE/GCC construction experience is preferred. • Ability to work independently at site and coordinate effectively with erection and engineering teams.
