Job Responsibilities This position is responsible for the structural analysis and design of routine to extremely complex bridge standards projects, including projects related to the Bridge Manual, Culvert Manual, All Bridge Design Memoranda, and associated details and base sheets. This position is also responsible for conducting special investigations concerning design specifications, design concepts, and construction procedures for the department. Annual projects: 3 - 30 Contract value: $7,000,000 to $15,000,000 This position reports to the Bridge Standard Group Engineer.
There are no subordinates reporting to this position. This position operates in an environment of performing the structural analysis and design of complex structures and structural components, including bridges, culverts, retaining walls, and components thereof. This requires the development of unique and innovative design as well as solutions to structural engineering problems. In order to accomplish these tasks, the incumbent must be knowledgeable of the latest technology, design methods, design concepts, and material utilization to ensure a design that is structurally adequate and cost effective.
Typical problems faced by the incumbent include the necessity to develop and maintain a comprehensive knowledge of structural engineering theories and principles so that s/he is capable of creating routine to extremely complex standard designs that will be used by licensed structural engineers throughout the state. Designs of these types frequently demand the resolution of difficult engineering problems and may require the development of creative solutions to situations never encountered. The greatest challenge faced by the incumbent is keeping abreast of the latest technological developments in structural materials and designs and determining the potential applications to departmental projects.
In a typical project, the incumbent is personally responsible for calculating and enveloping the internal forces in a specific standard detail, such as a bridge railing, cross-frame, deck overhang, or approach slab. The enveloped moments, shears, axial forces, and torsional forces of each individual structural member are then used to generate a standard design or design procedure which can be used on the majority of structures in the state.
Other design parameters include fatigue analysis, geometric requirements, seismic analysis, and cost analysis. On occasion, the incumbent reviews proprietary designs prepared by external producers, such as mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls, modular joints, or bearings. The incumbent ensures completeness and structural adequacy of these products and offers recommendations for inclusion or rejection of these products for projects in Illinois. The incumbent aids in the incorporation of current standards and design procedures into design policy, including the Bridge Manual, Culvert Manual, and All Bridge Design Memoranda.
(Job Responsibilities continued) The incumbent is given latitude, commensurate with his/her experience, to act independently when performing the responsibilities assigned to this position but must refer problems concerning deviations from departmental policies, specifications, and standards to the Bridge Standard Group Engineer. The incumbent is guided by the American Association of State Highways Transportation Officials (AASHTO) specifications and departmental policies. The incumbent has contact with the district offices when resolving structural problems occurring in the field and with university personnel involved in research.
S/He also has frequent contact with other units within the Bureau of Bridges and Structures. Occasional statewide and/or out-of-state travel with overnight stays is required. The effectiveness of this position can be measured by the technical expertise displayed by the incumbent in the analysis required for the completion of design projects and the incumbent’s ability to solve structural engineering problems in the time allotted. Principal Accountabilities Develops a routine to extremely complex structural standards which incorporate current methods and technology.
Produces design computations utilized in the preparation of structural plans. Aids in the updating of design policy documents, including the Bridge Manual, Culvert Manual, Design Guides, and All Bridge Design Memoranda. Reviews and recommends approval/disapproval of proprietary products for qualified product lists in Illinois. Performs duties in compliance with departmental safety rules. Performs all duties in a manner conducive to the fair and equitable treatment of all employees. Performs other duties as assigned.
