Work with DC Management Team (or Lead) & Assigned Project teams to create fabrication level mass timber modeling and shop drawing content for CNC and install
Job Description
POSITION RESPONSIBILITIES & DUTIES:
Able to perform all essential Production Detailer responsibilities Analyze and interpret architectural and structural contract drawings, assess constructability specific to budget, procurement, detailing, fabrication, install, architectural look and long-term structural performance and behavior of wood material Develop, use, and improve parametric modeling techniques (Autodesk Revit) to create effectiveness in fabrication-level modeling with respect to cost/schedule and mitigation of detailing/fabrication errors on current/future projects. Implement techniques to increase quality and efficiency within DC department Improve current Timberlab parametric Revit families via feedback from CNC operators, installers, and estimators Utilize Revit as tool to create clear and organized progression drawing sets (RFI, internal team review, AE review, and field review) Partner with Timberlab team, A/E Team, suppliers, other trades, and vendors. Actively participate in and lead critical design meetings and work towards solutions which best fit project (design goals, ownership goals, Company goals) Manage/lead the CNC coding and translation effort to Fabrication team using foundational knowledge of geometric translation process, schedule, and CNC/machine time Real time analysis of CNC realities for wood members and connections, with ability to respond quickly to fabrication issues Extensive research on material behavior (tolerance, manufacturing characteristics, fabrication speed and opportunity) Lead early schedule development as it relates to DC, Pre-Con, and fabrication activities; use schedule expertise to drive design decisions and milestones for internal/external stakeholders Create accountability within internal team and be a role model for effective schedule use Companywide. Lead RFI generation for mass timber constructability and interaction with other structural/non-structural elements Perform pursuit modeling and massing for visual intent and quantity takeoff Work with DC Manager/Lead to interpret/analyze detailing and fabrication schedule for specific assigned project(s) and potential schedule risks based on current detailing (state of contract documents, RFI impacts, etc.) Stay abreast to standards and continuously thrive to develop and improve our design/detailing standards Other responsibilities as assigned
Minimum Skills & Experience Requirements
Engineering, Construction Management, or Architectural degree, or completion of Construction Management Certificate Program, or equivalent 2-6 years of construction-related experience, or equivalent Extensive knowledge of Autodesk Revit – project setup, model interaction, and shop drawing creation through multiple phases of a project Mastery of parametric modeling – effective use of parameters (shared, global) to drive part characteristics and behavior of geometry Extensive knowledge of QC protocols to limit model imperfection and actively track design issues/RFIs Extensive knowledge of non-mass timber systems (shape, size, tolerance, modeling techniques, etc.) for structural elements and MEPF systems. Ability to clash opposing systems and create design logs/issue/clash tracking via Navisworks or other platforms Extensive knowledge of project schedules – mass timber impact through all phases of construction (logic ties, milestones, predecessors, successors) Ability to analyze critical path and ability to drive internal/external stakeholders to efficient and timely decisions for building design and systems Extensive knowledge of cost scheduling/budgets, contract writing, forecasts, and overall review Knowledge of building codes (such as material behavior and tolerance, bearing characteristics, attachment, spans/sizing, and fire considerations (sizing, egress, connection, exposure, treatment) Fundamental understanding of wood treatment/protection as it relates to material shape, application/sequence, and interaction with adjacent materials/environment Foundational understanding of structural principles (layout/spans, sizing, connector design) and their impact on quality, cost, and schedule through project lifecycle Structural detailing and/or mass timber-specific detailing background is preferred Ability to teach and train DC and non-DC staff on VDC fundamentals/practices; ability to provide constructive feedback and support Fundamental understanding of contract plans through all disciplines Ability to read and interpret structural details, steel vendor shop drawings, non-structural shop drawings, etc. CNC fabrication experience (detailing, operation, etc.) is a plus Basic computer skills Strong organizational skills Strong written and verbal English language communication skills Ability to use independent judgment, self-starter Drafting and advanced computer skills a plus Continued thirst for knowledge and understanding of mass timber systems, design, and project approach
