Setting out concrete slab

[@dn3772]

Hey Greg, I know a way to put dwg straight into edm with all drawing information, it is much easier and faster and life changing on-site, you put it as a reference file ,I use ts16, message back if you want details

[@SITENG]

Might be good for TS16, I personally wouldn't add all drawing as I like to prepare it keeping only what I need if setting out. I was bringing drawings as a background drawings too, but as I said I really like to prepare the drawing and still keep the printed ones all the time with me 😁 Thank you and please write how to do it so other guys can use it 👍👍

[@dn3772]

@@SITENG it's great honestly, u make a new job, then you go into job properties and there press page until you get to reference files, make sure USB is plugged in with the dwg, then tick the dwg you want to use and press add, then store it. Now to use it to set out u click on the line or point you want in 3d viewer and then hold it on the touch screen until the menu comes up and press import

[@SITENG]

I will have a look when I get my hands on TS16 😁 TS15 would die. Thank you for this!

Hello Mr Greg I willing to work in UK as civil engineer but I'm so confused about the procedure is it possible a 3 years diploma holder which has minimum+ 8 years site experience as supervisor can i apply for site engineer job in UK

[@SITENG]

Hi Faisal! Please check my other videos about work&visa and what do you need to start here in UK. Of course it's possible 👍👍

[@jeysrether]

Hi Greg how are you & Do UK construction companies Recruit Civil Engineer from Other countries with experience( from India)

[@SITENG]

Hi! You have to look for sponsorship as this is the way now to get a job legally in UK. There is a need for engineers, but you have to go through all the process of getting permit to work in UK which is not that easy. Keep looking and all the best 👍👍

Sir which msc course is good in uk in civil engineering, after completing batchelors

Hi Sathish, I can't really help you much with that, but do one you are most interested in. In terms of getting a job later it doesn't matter that much 👍

Hey Greg just wondering why you always using blue beam and not AutoCAD much?

[@SITENG]

I use AutoCAD a lot, but BB is great too. I use BB mostly for mark-ups, AutoCAD with Total Station and to measure accurately. Obviously when working with drawings as PDFs these I open in BB

[@moneyavemac7505]

Hi Greg I’ve been following your page for a while now and you have inspired me to get into engineering. How can I go about this without a degree in engineering? Is there any courses available that employers accept? Thank you and keep up the good work 👊🏽

[@SITENG]

Hi! There are some courses available like surveying in construction etc and they are CITB certified so you can get a white card after and this shows your qualifications. Then you have to look for an assistant/junior engineer role when you'll get the experience, once you're comfortable with setting out, no one later ask you for degree etc, if you're good that's it 😁 I worked with many good engineers with no degree and no courses, most of them worked in construction and asked, or was asked to help engineer 😁

[@moneyavemac7505]

You’ve been a great help. I thought I was at a dead end but you’ve relieved my anxiety, thank you so much. I’m also qualified in H&S Nebosh level 3 construction, would you say it’s worth going for the national diploma or better to just gain experience on site? Keep up the good work brother 👍🏽

[@SITENG]

Experience on site, the sooner the better. All the best!😁

have you checked the Finchley College? You can get there NVQ L3 in Engineering Surveying

You have to look for companies which offer sponsorship, it won't be easy, but you have to try. You can also try to get some other visa type and look for work while you're here 👍👍

When the engineer marks the lines in for the job do you use the inside of the spray line or the outside for the marking for outside of the concrete can you do a video on marking out

[@SITENG]

Hi Paul! I use a string line and spray so the you can see the line, or spray first and then chalk line on top 😁 There are vids on the channel showing this 😁

Hi Greg I have a question “ can we do part time engineering job in uk while studying masters ?”

[@SITENG]

Hi Raja! There are people doing a 4 day work week and college which is great, but I've never met people doing part time on site. It might be possible in some office job, but I don't really know. I would say it's definitely possible, but you have to keep looking for it and asking as it won't be easy. All the best👍👍
