Our team is experiencing exciting growth! Jacobs has the need for a Construction Inspector to join our team in Virginia Beach. Successful candidates will perform inspections of roadways, bridges, traffic signals and related highway structures during construction to evaluate Contractor methods, workmanship, quality, and conformance with contract documents. Candidates will evaluate construction materials for quality and compliance with specifications; perform related work such as data collection, report writing, record-keeping, field and laboratory testing. Employees at this level typically work autonomously on assignments but are expected to provide quality daily reports and regularly communicate with the client’s Construction Managers and Jacobs Coordinator.
As our Construction Inspector you will be asked to monitor and inspect contractual field work which includes excavations, drainage facilities, road surfaces, and structures. You will take field measurements of pay items, report contractor’s daily production rates as well as schedule work and inspection phases with contractor’s superintendent and agency personnel.
We will look to your expertise in advising contractors of violations and make recommendations for adjustments to operations. You will review placement of and perform tests on construction materials, review lines, grades, dimensions, and elevations using standard survey and field engineering equipment. Additionally, you’ll oversee and enforce the installation of erosion/siltation controls, highways work zones and traffic control devices.
When you join Jacobs, you will have the opportunity to recommend changes to construction plans to meet field conditions or provide project cost savings, maintain project records; including daily diaries, materials notebooks, as-built plans, pay quantity records, and monthly estimates.
