A computer numerically controlled(CNC) programmer programs the machines that cut, shape, and finish materials such as metals, plastics, or wood into usable components. The CNC programmer must study the drawings and blueprints of the components that need to be manufactured and determine which machines will be required, what they will need to do, and the order in which the work needs to be done. Often, CNC programmers are also asked to estimate how long the job will take. 2, record 2, English, - computer%20numerical%20control%20programmer

The consulting engineer is the designer of projects, and the duties generally include the outline preparation of a project and an estimate of cost; surveys and site investigation; the detailed design of the project, including drawings, specifications, schedules of quantities, and forms of contracts; advice to the client on which construction bid to accept; and administration of contracts and supervision of the execution of the work. In the execution of contracts the consulting engineer may be required to act in a quasi-judicial capacity to decide on various questions which may arise between the client and the contractor. Consulting engineers usually work in partnership with a small number of other engineers, and it is usual for such partnerships to specialize in a particular branch of engineering, such as transport, water supply, dams, large buildings, and so on. 4, record 8, English, - consulting%20engineer

The Project Manager facilitates the consultant’s design efforts by responding to requests for more information (which often involves meeting with the client or other RPS personnel). While there may be direct discussions between the designers and the client/owner, the Project Manager must carefully manage these communications to ensure that the client can fully understand and analyze the proposals which the consultant is offering, and that RPS and client views are expressed to the consultant in appropriately detailed, technical terms. The Project Manager, together with the RPS team, also reviews the consultant’s design at progressive stages of development, and may pose questions regarding design standards chosen or make suggestions on how to improve the clarity of the drawings and/or specifications. 2, record 11, English, - Design%20Development

The Preliminary Design Report provides more detailed information about the materials and standards to be employed during construction, hence a more detailed Class B cost estimate can be prepared. Once the Preliminary Design Report is complete, the Project Manager participates in a presentation to the client at which the designer demonstrates how his preliminary work has addressed the client's functional and aesthetic needs. Throughout this process, the Project Manager reports regularly to RPS and client management to confirm the project status and to identify those changes in time, cost, quality and scope which may alter the investment or program strategies. This sub-phase is completed when the Preliminary Design Report has been accepted and signed off by the client, by all applicable regulatory and design authorities, by the RPS Design Review team, and by the RPS Project Team. 2, record 11, English, - Design%20Development

Bien que les concepteurs et le client ou le propriétaire puissent parfois discuter directement, le gestionnaire de projet doit encadrer attentivement ces échanges, afin de s'assurer que le client pourra comprendre et analyser parfaitement les propositions de l'expert-conseil et qu'on fera connaître l'avis des SI et du client à l'expert-conseil en faisant appel à des termes techniques suffisamment précis. En collaboration avec l'équipe représentant les SI, le gestionnaire de projet revoit en outre les travaux de conception de l'expert-conseil à différentes étapes de leur élaboration et peut poser des questions sur les normes de conception ou faire des suggestions sur la manière d'améliorer la clarté des dessins et (ou) des devis. 2, record 13, French, - Rapport%20de%20conception%20pr%C3%A9liminaire

Le Rapport de conception préliminaire renferme des renseignements plus détaillés sur les matériaux à utiliser et les normes à respecter pendant les travaux de construction; on peut donc préparer une estimation des coûts plus détaillée, soit l'estimation du type B. Lorsqu'on a établi le Rapport de conception préliminaire, le gestionnaire de projet participe à la présentation, au client, d'un exposé [sic] au cours duquel le responsable de la conception démontre que ses travaux préliminaires répondent aux besoins fonctionnels et esthétiques du client. Dans l'ensemble de ce processus, le gestionnaire de projet présente à intervalles réguliers des rapports aux SI et à la direction du client afin de confirmer l'état d'avancement du projet et d'attirer l'attention sur les changements apportés aux délais, aux coûts, à la qualité et à l'étendue des travaux et qui pourraient avoir pour effet de modifier les stratégies en matière d'investissement ou de réalisation d'un programme. Cette sous-phase prend fin lorsque le client, tous les responsables compétents de la réglementation et de la conception, l'équipe des SI chargée de l'examen de la conception et l'équipe du projet des SI ont accepté et approuvé le Rapport de conception préliminaire. 2, record 13, French, - Rapport%20de%20conception%20pr%C3%A9liminaire

In the case of large, long term contracts for supply of works, buildings, major systems or equipment where physical ownership has not been transferred, calculation of liabilities should be based on the percentage of work completed which has not been paid. Acceptance or non-acceptance of work or product completed should be taken into account in determining the amount to be recorded, but only significant or total rejection of the product or performance should be considered as cause for not recording a liability.

The proportioning of members to carry loads in a structure in the most economical way. A structural design is carried out in two main parts, the first being a rough estimate of the loads with the structural analysis. When the structural analysis is checked and found satisfactory the loads are more accurately estimated. The second half of the design consists of the proportioning of the members according to the calculations of the first half, together with the adjustment of the original calculations to any final altered sizes of parts. This is the main work of a structural engineer, since most conventional building types have been sufficiently analysed and need no further analysis in the drawing office. 2, record 17, English, - structural%20design
