Civil engineering technicians like Katie take ideas, sketches and specifications from the engineers and translate them into accurate, working plans using Computer Aided Design
(CAD) software. 

Katie’s responsibilities at Davel Engineering & Environmental inc. call for creating all types of plans, from subdivisions to commercial drainage projects and road profiles. 

What does Katie enjoy about her role?  “I like paying attention to the details and seeing the plans develop into an actual project.”

“My goal is to provide what the client is looking for and meet their needs as best as I can,” says Shane who works closely with Davel’s engineers.

Using data calculations and raw information, like Katie, Shane converts ideas into working drawings via CAD software. 

“It’s rewarding to see the plans go from paper to finished product,” he says, while working with a great team.

Jim Sehloff heads the surveying department at Davel Engineering & Environmental inc. , scheduling crews, researching deeds and creating survey maps.  His goal is to serve Davel customers by determining the most accurate division of the land, so they can make sound project decisions.
