Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Adequate construction staffing is critical for performance of highway construction projects. The variable nature of these projects, however, can make it difficult to estimate construction staff requirements for both the short and long term. This study gathered information on the methods being used at highway transportation agencies to forecast staffing requirements. These methods are diverse and range from simple heuristics based on generic project types to multi-variate regression models developed from historical project data. Information for this study was acquired through a literature review, surveys of state transportation agencies, and site visits to non-state agencies. Timothy R.B. Taylor and William F. Maloney, University of Kentucky Department of Civil Engineering, Lexington, Kentucky, collected and synthesized the information and wrote the report. The members of the topic panel are acknowledged on the preceding page. This synthesis is an immediately useful document that records the practices that were acceptable with the limitations of the knowledge available at the time of its preparation. As progress in research and practice continues, new knowledge will be added to that now at hand"--Preface.

This book was released on 2013-07-29 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Airway Transportation System Specialists ATSS) maintain and certify the equipment in the National Airspace System (NAS).In fiscal year 2012, Technical Operations had a budget of $1.7B. Thus, Technical Operations includes approximately 19 percent of the total FAA employees and less than 12 percent of the $15.9 billion total FAA budget. Technical Operations comprises ATSS workers at five different types of Air Traffic Control (ATC) facilities: (1) Air Route Traffic Control Centers, also known as En Route Centers, track aircraft once they travel beyond the terminal airspace and reach cruising altitude; they include Service Operations Centers that coordinate work and monitor equipment. (2) Terminal Radar Approach Control (TRACON) facilities control air traffic as aircraft ascend from and descend to airports, generally covering a radius of about 40 miles around the primary airport; a TRACON facility also includes a Service Operations Center. (3) Core Airports, also called Operational Evolution Partnership airports, are the nation's busiest airports. (4) The General National Airspace System (GNAS) includes the facilities located outside the larger airport locations, including rural airports and equipment not based at any airport. (5) Operations Control Centers are the facilities that coordinate maintenance work and monitor equipment for a Service Area in the United States. At each facility, the ATSS execute both tasks that are scheduled and predictable and tasks that are stochastic and unpredictable in. These tasks are common across the five ATSS disciplines: (1) Communications, maintaining the systems that allow air traffic controllers and pilots to be in contact throughout the flight; (2) Surveillance and Radar, maintaining the systems that allow air traffic controllers to see the specific locations of all the aircraft in the airspace they are monitoring; (3) Automation, maintaining the systems that allow air traffic controllers to track each aircraft's current and future position, speed, and altitude; (4) Navigation, maintaining the systems that allow pilots to take off, maintain their course, approach, and land their aircraft; and (5) Environmental, maintaining the power, lighting, and heating/air conditioning systems at the ATC facilities. Because the NAS needs to be available and reliable all the time, each of the different equipment systems includes redundancy so an outage can be fixed without disrupting the NAS. Assessment of Staffing Needs of Systems Specialists in Aviation reviews the available information on: (A) the duties of employees in job series 2101 (Airways Transportation Systems Specialist) in the Technical Operations service unit; (B) the Professional Aviation Safety Specialists (PASS) union of the AFL-CIO; (C) the present-day staffing models employed by the FAA; (D) any materials already produced by the FAA including a recent gap analysis on staffing requirements; (E) current research on best staffing models for safety; and (F) non-US staffing standards for employees in similar roles.

Download or read book Construction Engineering and Inspection written by Alberto Munguia and published by . This book was released on 2021-06 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book serves as a training tool that teaches how to write helpful daily reports. The content of this work is knowledge acquired outside the classroom. The information included is valuable because it informs about what is expected of inspection teams when writing daily construction reports. The content is relevant because it describes the information that construction, engineering, and inspection managers need to bring the project to its successful completion. Knowing how to write useful daily reports is vital to provide inspection services that meet customer expectations. The central theme of this volume is to properly document the daily activities and critical events of the construction site. Nevertheless, it also reflects on issues that answer the question of whether contractors and inspectors are enemies. Experts use the methodology shown when supervising highway construction, but users can apply it to other types of infrastructure work. Consultants will benefit significantly from these pages because their employees will know a successful way to anticipate emerging risks consistently and, therefore, be more effective in delivering good quality projects. The book is essential for new inspectors or young engineers seeking guidance on how to report on road construction work. This book shortens their learning curve and helps them get the recognition they will need to advance their careers.
