Work I have been executing
The site was the very important task for me because
the internship main objective lies over it and I have
gain many knowledge from the site like
communication skill , handling workers, management
skill etc. within 2 months . I have the ability to see
many works from the project .
The work I have been executing at site :
Inspecting the worked elements and how they work .
Checking the work based on the given check list
(plans).
The site work is general overlay over the supervisor
part so I have been working as supervisor based on
the given check list that our company give to us.
In general we can say my job basically consists of
being at the project site that the engineer is not on
and being his eyes , I help out with anything that
needs to be done such as :
Calculation amount of concrete needed to deposit next day
Check: number of steel bars in each reinforcement
structures.
And some manual labor .

 Conclusion

My favorite part about working for DASH Group is the

people . everyone is extremely sincere and friendly
and they are always willing to help .sometime I
would sit down for an hour with an employee who is
just trying to teach me and help me learn more .

My future plans are to continue to learn the whole

engineering process from the designing of the pans
to the actual labor that involved inputting the plans
into reality and to be able to design building and
structures for myself someday

Im learning a lot and

enjoying my summer here .
