Design Engineer Review

I carried out calculations to confirm the safety of temporary works, such as scaffolding, hoarding, formwork, working platforms and other works.

Not particularly I was only there for 8 weeks and many of the processes were new to me, therefore in the short period of time I was there I only worked to archived design briefs as opposed to new ones

I have developed new skills for scaffolding design as I'd had no previous experience, which was very useful and interesting. However, beyond that the remainder was development, as many of the subject areas I had learnt about at university, however learning the process in design as opposed to university calculations was very informative.

The office was very busy, which I appreciate, therefore I had to find things to fill my time with when waiting for people to become available to set new work and check existing. However, the majority of the support and guidance when I was getting it was very useful

I have worked with the company before, therefore I know there is a good culture as a whole, however my team's atmosphere was a little more isolated

When I had work and was provided adequate support I found my placement very informative and enjoyed it, especially being put on difficult briefs that challenged me. However, a decent proportion of my time was spent finding things to do where i didn't have enough work set and I had no place therefore being moved around the office every day to a different seat didn't give the feeling of inclusion
