Abstract:

A good Resident Engineer (RE) is not just an inspector, he is a hybrid of a lawyer, engineer, accountant, manager, administrator, and communicator as well as an inspector. In order for our new RE trainees to be a hybrid, the trainee must be well prepared and capable of running today's complicated projects. The author gives an outline of items which he believes are required for any type of RE training program.
