Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment. CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYMENT CONTINUED: The work is generally sedentary with periodic need for site visits involving standing, walking, climbing, bending and crawling to assess or inspect existing and new facilities and generally traversing construction sites. Occasional surveys and inspections of the Navy and Marine Corps' infrastructure will require some physical exertion. (For example, crawlspace inspections, above and below deck pier evaluations, etc.). A valid driver's license is required for driving to site visits and meetings at various installations. Work generally involves minimal risks and observance of safety precautions typical of an office setting. However, field inspections are made which may require protective clothing. Protective clothing worn in field inspections includes hard hats, reflective vest, hard-toed boots, safety glasses, and ear protection. Other protective wear such as safety harnesses, coveralls, and gloves may be required for certain situations. The incumbent may be assigned to work in areas where certain potentially harmful physical and chemical agents are present. These agents may include but are not limited to fumes, dust, noise, heat, ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, chemicals, etc. To ensure employee safety and health, NAVFAC FECs maintain personnel protection programs consistent with applicable laws and regulations. These programs may include protective equipment (i.e. ear protection or respirator), and laws and medical surveillance the incumbent may be required to take medical examinations to assess medical qualifications for duty involving these agents. The incumbent shall report directly to a military (Navy Civil Engineer Corps) FEAD Director typically ranging in rank from O-2 (LTJG) to O-4 (Lieutenant Commander). However, the PMEB also has an operational responsibility to the FEC CI Construction and Design Product Line Coordinators to ensure assigned projects adhere to Command and CIBL policies, processes, and metrics goals. The incumbent must be computer literate and competent in the use of word processing, spreadsheets, electronic mail, internet and relevant CIBL-related software. Travel by military or commercial aircraft may be required. This position has a selective placement factor that will be used to screen out ineligible candidates. The selective placement factor is: You must currently be a licensed Professional Engineer (PE) if applying for the 0801 series. You must be a Registered Architect (RA) if applying for the 0808 series. Your license or registration must be held in a State, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, or a territory of the United States. EDUCATION CONTINUED: Architecture Series 0808 1. Degree: architecture; or related field that included 60 semester hours of course work in architecture or related disciplines of which at least (1) 30 semester hours were in architectural design, and (2) 6 semester hours were in each of the following: structural technology, properties of materials and methods of construction, and environmental control systems. OR 2. Combination of education and experience -- college-level education, training, and/or technical experience that furnished (1) a thorough knowledge of the arts and sciences underlying professional architecture, and (2) a good understanding, both theoretical and practical, of the architectural principles, methods, and techniques and their applications to the design and construction or improvement of buildings. The adequacy of such background must be demonstrated by at least one of the following: 1.Related Curriculum: Degree in architectural engineering may be accepted as satisfying in full the basic requirements, provided the completed course work in architectural engineering provided knowledge, skills, and abilities substantially equivalent to those provided in the courses specified in paragraph A. The curriculum for a degree in either architecture or architectural engineering covers function, esthetics, site, structure, economics, mechanical-electrical, and other engineering problems related to the design and construction of buildings primarily (but not exclusively) intended to house human activities. The courses required for a degree in architecture generally place emphasis upon planning, esthetics, and materials and methods of construction, while the courses for an architectural engineering degree place equal or greater weight on the technical engineering aspects such as structural systems, mechanical systems, and the properties of materials. Because of this difference in emphasis, persons with degrees in architecture may have a preference for work assignments that offer greater opportunities for them to express their artistic and creative abilities. As a result, they may be more concerned with planning and design aspects of architecture, and persons with degrees in architectural engineering may be more engaged in aspects emphasizing technical engineering considerations. 2.Experience: An applicant lacking a degree in architecture must have had l year of experience in an architect's office or in architectural work for each year short of graduation from a program of study in architecture. In the absence of college courses, 5 years of such experience is required. This experience must have demonstrated that the applicant has acquired a thorough knowledge of the fundamental principles and theories of professional architecture.
