Job Description:

Structural Inspector (Infrastructure & Bridges)

Dubai, UAE

To carry out on-site structural inspections of all bridge and tunnel works on behalf of the Consultant under a FIDIC form of contract, ensuring that the Contractor's works comply with the contract documents, approved drawings, project specifications, RTA/Dubai Municipality standards, and applicable international codes (ACI, AASHTO LRFD, BS, Eurocodes, ITA guidelines). The Structural Inspector supports the Structural Engineer and ARE in safeguarding quality, safety, and contract compliance across the full structural scope.

What You'll Be Doing:

Bridge Inspections — Substructure & Foundations

• Inspect pile foundations including bored piles, barrettes, and pile caps; witness pile integrity testing (PIT, CSL) and static/dynamic load tests.

• Verify reinforcement placement, cover, lap lengths, and couplers in pile caps, pier columns, and abutments.

• Inspect formwork stability, alignment, and tolerances prior to concrete pour approval.

• Witness concrete pours, sampling, slump tests, and temperature monitoring for mass concrete elements.

Bridge Inspections — Superstructure

• Inspect precast segmental box girders, I-girders, and U-girders during fabrication, transportation, and erection.

• Witness post-tensioning works — duct installation, strand threading, stressing, elongation checks, grouting, and anchor block protection.

• Verify bearing installation, alignment, levels, and pre-setting per design requirements.

• Inspect deck slab pours, stitch pours, parapets, crash barriers, and deck waterproofing/asphalt overlay.

• Inspect expansion joints, drainage scuppers, and deck furniture installation.

Tunnel Inspections — Excavation & Primary Support

• Inspect excavation works for cut-and-cover tunnels, diaphragm walls, secant pile walls, and underpinning systems.

• Monitor TBM operations, segment delivery checks, ring build geometry, and annular grouting where applicable.

• Inspect shotcrete (sprayed concrete lining) application, thickness, rebound, and curing — witness panel and core tests.

• Verify rock bolt installation, lattice girders, and steel rib supports per design specifications.

• Monitor ground movement, convergence readings, and instrumentation data with the geotechnical team.

Tunnel Inspections — Secondary Lining & Waterproofing

• Inspect reinforcement placement, formwork (including travelling formwork systems), and concrete pours for tunnel secondary lining.

• Verify waterproofing membrane installation — PVC/HDPE sheets, welded seams, vacuum/spark testing, and compartmentalization.

• Inspect construction joints, water stops, injection hoses, and post-grouting works.

• Witness concrete pours including SCC (self-compacting concrete) for crown sections — verify temperature, slump, and curing.

• Inspect cross passages, ventilation shafts, emergency exits, and associated structural elements.

Quality Control & Testing (Bridges & Tunnels)

• Review inspection requests (IRs); witness and sign off pre-pour checks, concrete pours, and acceptance testing in line with ITPs.

• Witness NDT activities — UPV, rebound hammer, half-cell potential, GPR — and concrete cube/cylinder testing.

• Verify survey setting-out, levels, alignment, camber, tunnel geometry, and tolerances against IFC drawings.

• Raise non-conformance reports (NCRs), site observation reports, and track close-out actions to completion.

• Review Contractor's material deliveries, mill certificates, and batch records against approved submittals.

HSE & Authority Coordination

• Enforce the project HSE plan during all inspections — particular focus on heavy lifts, post-tensioning, working at height, confined space entry, gas monitoring, and tunnel evacuation procedures.

• Stop unsafe activities and escalate immediately to the Structural Engineer / ARE.

• Support coordination with RTA, Dubai Municipality, DEWA, and other authorities during joint inspections and approvals.

Reporting & Records

• Maintain daily inspection records, photographic logs, and as-built documentation through Aconex/ProjectWise.

• Prepare daily and weekly inspection reports for the Structural Engineer / ARE.

• Support snagging, de-snagging, taking-over inspections, and defects-liability inspections on structural elements.

What Required Skills You'll Bring:

• Bachelor’s degree in Civil or Structural Engineering with extensive bridge and tunnel inspection experience.

• Minimum 8 years' structural inspection experience, with demonstrable experience on both bridge and tunnel projects (TBM, cut-and-cover, or NATM/SEM).

• Minimum 4 years' UAE/GCC experience on RTA, metro, or comparable authority projects, preferably consultant-side supervision.

• RTA / Dubai Municipality approval as Inspector Engineer is highly preferred.

• Valid UAE driving license preferred.

• Strong technical reading of structural and shop drawings, post-tensioning details, segmental lining drawings, and waterproofing details.

• Familiarity with TBM operations, ring build geometry, and shotcrete/SCL methodologies.

• Proficient in MS Office, Fair knowledge in AutoCAD viewer.

• Strong reporting, communication, and stakeholder coordination skills.

• Fluent English (written and spoken).

• Physically able and willing to work underground, in confined spaces, on rotating shifts, and during night works.

• High standards of integrity, impartiality, and professionalism — essential when acting on behalf of the Engineer.
