Major Responsibilities
Plans concrete placements, including volume, production rate, access, truck cycle time, pump setup, sequence, testing, curing, washout, and contingencies.
Coordinates daily and weekly concrete demand with construction, batch plants, suppliers, testing personnel, pump providers, and project controls.
Verifies batch plant readiness, including materials, moisture correction, admixture dispensing, calibrations, batching tolerances, mixing, temperature control, utilities, maintenance, and production records.
Supports batch plant installation, commissioning, trial batching, startup, and operational-readiness reviews.
Reviews mix designs for strength, workability, pumpability, set time, temperature, air content, segregation resistance, finishability, and placement suitability.
Coordinates pump selection and setup, routing, delivery sequence, placing rate, communications, cleanout, and backup plans.
Monitors placements and resolves issues involving batching, delivery, pumping, workability, temperature, consolidation, finishing, curing, interruptions, rejected loads, and nonconforming concrete.
Coordinates pre-placement inspections, sampling, testing, specimen preparation, strength tracking, acceptance requirements, and quality records.
Reviews drawings, specifications, subcontracts, schedules, technical submittals, inspection reports, and vendor data affecting concrete work.
Provides concrete-related input to estimates, schedules, budgets, requisitions, equipment and staffing plans, logistics studies, and supplier evaluations.
Coordinates field issue resolution and documents decisions, corrective actions, changes, and lessons learned.
Promotes safe and environmentally responsible batching, truck movement, pumping, material handling, washout, wastewater, and dust-control practices.
Tracks placement volume, production rate, truck turnaround, rejected loads, interruptions, testing compliance, defects, rework, and schedule impacts.
Supports mass concrete, structural concrete, foundations, slabs, walls, precast, and other technically demanding placements.
