5. Examine structures at risk of collapse and advise how to improve their structural integrity, such as recommending removal or repair of defective parts or rebuilding the entire structure
6. Make drawings, specifications, and computer models of structures for building contractors
7. Work with geotechnical engineers to investigate ground conditions and analyze results of soil samples and in-situ tests
8. Liaise with construction contractors to ensure that newly erected buildings are structurally sound
