Description

Civil engineering assistants support skilled workers in setting up and securing construction sites, e.g. by erecting traffic signs and putting up barriers. They provide materials, tools and machines, load the required materials and equipment onto vehicles, transport them to the site and unload them. They also help, for example, with the construction of excavations, trenches, shafts and embankments, the draining of trenches and areas or the compaction of soil. They help lay pipes, cables or rails and construct paved surfaces, slabbed surfaces and asphalt surfaces.

During excavations, civil engineering assistants clear the excavation site on instruction, for example, they loosen hard and stony soils with a pick and remove the soil with a shovel. They then transport the earth from the excavation site using a wheelbarrow. In civil engineering, many tasks are performed with the aid of construction machinery such as asphalt mixing plants, earthmoving and paving machines, which helpers with the appropriate experience and authorization can also operate independently and, if necessary, clean and maintain.
