Kiewit Infrastructure Engineering's Design Build Management team drives clients to turn to Kiewit during all stages of design-build projects to manage their multi-disciplined design teams to improve schedule, control costs, and minimize risk. Our construction-driven engineers analyze root causes and resolve design issues before they impact schedule and budget. We are an in-house resource that supports projects throughout the company, sharing experiences, innovative concepts, and design best practices for all projects we support. Our participation leads to safe, cost effective, and innovative designs that achieve client expectations and further Kiewit’s legacy of excellence. On our team, you’ll have the opportunity to see more, touch more, and do more than you ever imagined.

Develop drawings and calculations for temporary works and construction methods including: Heavy lift plans (site logistics, equipment selection, geometry/feasibility studies, design of custom rigging and lifting devices, hoisting and jacking systems, custom tools, and crane pad / working surface designs). Erection procedures or planned sequences related to construction or demolition operations. Evaluation of existing structures for construction loads and/or demolition planning. Structural analysis to ensure stability during the temporary condition of new bridges, viaducts, buildings, tunnels, and other structures (e.g., construction staging, design of temporary falsework systems, and rebar cage hoisting and support).
