Apprenticeship as Structural Engineering Designer
…On the contrary! Structural Engineering Designers (formerly known in Germany as Drafters) are the first point of contact when it comes to plans. Quite simply: no plan, no construction project! Using specialized computer programs such as CAD, they create technical construction drawings. In doing so, they connect the creativity of architects with the precise calculations of engineers. The result: a detailed construction plan that colleagues in the precast concrete plant and carpentry workshop can then use to carry out their work.
At HERING, we offer training in the fields of civil engineering and architecture.
A qualifying and comprehensive apprenticeship as a drafter – both in civil engineering and in the architectural field – is the best foundation for many career paths across the entire construction sector. And having a broad skill set will only become more important in the future!
