TAIT & Associates, Inc. <br />On -Call Water Resources Engineering Services <br />DNR, Milwaukee County, City of Detroit, East Bay M.U.D., Pima County, Salt <br />River Project, Navajo Nation Government, plus many others. <br />AK DOT, Civil 3D Implementation and CAD Standards, 2008-2018 <br />Drew was the Eagle Point lead technical consultant working with the AK DOTto <br />setup and transition to Civil 3D while implementing a master CAD standard <br />following the NCS format. He performed interviews to understand and <br />document the DOT's overall design workflows and requirements for part of or <br />all of the processes from the inception to finalization of a project, making <br />recommendations to increase efficiency, improve quality and eliminate <br />problems. The DOT was setup in 3 regions that were completely independent to <br />the extent they used different design software in each region. Drew worked <br />with each region to understand their unique needs and develop a standard that <br />would work for all the regions. This included developing, implementing and <br />documenting the new CAD standards and the related design processes with <br />specific step-by-step outlines to follow with Civil 3D. As the AK DOT used <br />different design criteria than what was available by default from Civil 31), Drew <br />developed custom road assemblies to ensure the DOT standard for their <br />undercut and ditch foreslopes was maintained. He also created an overall <br />training curriculum and performed training each year for each of the 3 regions <br />using the DOT project data of those specific regions. <br />Washington County Road Administration Board, Standards and Training, 2004- <br />2007 <br />Drew worked as the Eagle Point team leader to coordinate his and his technical <br />team's activities as the CAD consultants for the setup of standards to be used by <br />the counties in the state of Washington. He worked with the County Road <br />Administration Board to determine a master set of CAD standards and then <br />customize the civil design software being used to follow these standards. Drew <br />coordinated the creation of custom training classes using project data from the <br />counties. He would then conducted the training classes or coordinated the <br />sessions to be performed by others on his team. <br />Short Elliot and Hendrickson, CAD Standards and Processes, 2003-2005 <br />Drew was the Eagle Point consultant working with S.E.H. to create an overall <br />design and survey CAD standard plus specific processes to follow by each <br />department involved in the project design to create the required deliverables. <br />The CAD standard included all the survey and design symbols, layer naming <br />convention, linetypes, survey codes, title blocks and layout of the different <br />types of sheets. The processes covered the setup and checks for collection of <br />survey data, office verification of data and creation of surface, setup of design <br />drawings, importing of GIS data, attachment of aerial images, the layout, design <br />and analysis of utilities, creation of mapping graphics for online portals plus <br />other processes. <br />TAIT Appendix Page 134 <br />
