Elements and Performance Criteria
- Prepare to monitor engineering structure.
- Project specifications and engineering design information are interpreted to identify components to be measured, and accuracy and precision tolerances to be applied in consultation with appropriate persons.
- Characteristics of operating environment and any special equipment and resource requirements are identified according to project specifications and organisational requirements.
- Equipment to be used to collect data is selected and checked to ensure correct operation and functionality according to manufacturer specifications.
- Organisation of project resources, equipment, materials and transport is designated to appropriate persons.
- Develop project plan to monitor engineering structure.
- Project objectives, deliverables, constraints and principal work activities are documented according to project specifications.
- Information is included in project plan relating to identified risks and contingencies, resources, technologies and techniques to be used to collect spatial data.
- Validation processes to verify integrity of required spatial data are devised and specified in project plan.
- Work responsibilities are allocated and supervisory processes, checks and measures are implemented.
- Implement monitoring tasks.
- Project management mechanisms are implemented to schedule, measure, record and report progress of activities in relation to project plan.
- Risk management and contingency strategies are devised and followed to identify and control hazards and risks, and ensure that monitoring activities comply with legal and statutory requirements.
- Surveying equipment is used to measure identified spatial components according to project specifications.
- Measured spatial data is reduced to project spatial reference system for comparison with design.
- Measurements are validated, recorded and processed according to project specifications.
- Non-conformities between engineering structure and project specifications are identified and resolved, or contingencies are managed according to organisational requirements.
- Finalise and report monitoring results.
- Monitoring is finalised and results are checked for compliance with project specifications and organisational requirements.
- Appropriate persons are notified of monitoring results according to organisational requirements.
- Documentation is completed and spatial data archived according to project and organisational requirements.
- Monitoring results are reviewed against project specifications and findings are reported to appropriate persons according to organisational requirements.
