Devry Engl216 week 4 assignment

Assume
you are an M-Global field engineer working at the construction site of a
nuclear power plant in Jentsen, Missouri. For the past three weeks, your job
has been to observe the construction of a water-cooling tower, a large
cylindrical structure. As consultants to the plant’s construction firm, you and
your M-Global crew were hired to make sure that work proceeds properly and on
schedule. As the field engineer, you are supposed to report any problems in
writing to your project manager, John Raines, back at your St. Louis office.
Then he will contact the construction firm’s office, if necessary.
Write
a short memo report to Raines. Take the following randomly organized
information and present it in a clear, well-organized fashion. If you wish, add
information of your own that might fit the context.
·
?Three cement pourings for the tower wall were delayed an
hour each on April 21 because of light rain.
·
?Cement-truck drivers must slow down while driving through
the site. Other workers complain about the excessive dust raised by the trucks.
·
?Mary Powell, an
M-Global safety inspector on the crew, cited 12 workers for not wearing their
hard hats.
·
?You just heard from
one subcontractor, Allis Wire, Inc., that there will be a two-day delay in
delivering some steel reinforcing wires that go into the concrete walls. That
delay will throw off next week’s schedule. Last Monday’s hard rain and flooding
kept everyone home that day.
·
?It is probably time
once again to get all the subcontractors together to discuss safety at the
tower site. Recently, two field hands had bad cuts from machinery.
·
?Although there have
not been any major thefts at the site, some miscellaneous boards and masonry
pieces are missing each day—probably because nearby residents (doing small home
projects) think that whatever they find at the site has been discarded. Are
additional “No trespassing” signs needed?
·
?Construction is only two days behind schedule, despite the
problems that have occurred.
