Electrical infrastructures, industries, machinaries, automobiles,bridges, pre engineered buildings, railway tracks, platforms, airports and many other structural projects require to be designed, constructed, maintained and operated by engineers. As these structures are used and operated by humans, it needs a lot of professionally verified execution of the designing process. A normal sign off by professional engineers is not enough to get assured about implementation of a design. Design engineering requires a highly qualified professional approach to ensure the safety of workers and public, to manage financial outlay in the provided budget, to meet industrial norms and regulations. A minimal disorientation in design or any other mistake in engineering can cause big disasters on lives, finance and reputation of the organizations. It has been observed that a lot of structural failures are due to little negligence in professional verification of designs and materials of construction.
To resolve the doubts of design verification, there is the requirement of extensively experienced engineers who meet the standards of professionalism, competence and qualification.
RPEQ(Registered Professional Engineers Queensland) designs are made or verified by professional engineers assessed and regulated by Board of Professional Engineers Queensland under the Professional Engineering Act 2002. RPEQ certified designs are audited, re engineered and examined to check associated risks, complications in manufacturing planning. The purpose of RPEQ certification system is to save everyone from any disasters caused by engineering faults.
RPEQ designs are implemented on the basis mathematical and scientific principles. The engineers take into consideration that all designs submitted for RPEQ certification need to be audited perfectly and every design not meeting the standards of quality and safety should not be passed.
Design verification requires a series of reviews of technical design standards. Following are the steps for design documentation:
-Design Calculations.
-Circuit Diagram.
-Visual Examination of the location, fundamental structural grounds, climatic challenges etc.
-Detailed auditing and investigation of material specifications, manufacturing requirements.
-Configuring the designs on multiplex moduling software and research based foresight of successful execution of engineering structures in future.
-Scientific measurements about the specifications of design to meet the standards of health and safety regulations.
All the engineering structures are verified under RPEQ design, such as:
-Runways
-Railway Platforms
-Electrical Substations
-Floating Bridges
-Metro Tracks
-Tunnels
-Military Structures
-Hospitals
-Institutional Structures
The professional engineering services need to be RPEQ certified in Queensland.
Any professional Engineers in Queensland not verified by Board of Professional Engineers Queensland are not eligible to work in Queensland. This law removes all possibilities of any engineering faults in structural implementations. Different engineering disciplines including Civil, Mechanical and Electrical are covered by RPEQ system. Other states may have different laws of design verification.
