Site Manager Assistance for Hornsby Station Logistics

About the project

Job Title: Site Manager Assignment – Hornsby Station Logistics Plans Using Civil 3D and InfraWorks I am seeking an experienced construction professional or Autodesk specialist to assist with the Site Manager component of two university group presentations. The work is limited to the Site Manager’s responsibilities, including construction methodology, site logistics, safety, staging and constructability. It does not include completing the other group members’ sections. Selected Site The selected site is Hornsby Train Station, Sydney NSW. The proposed project is a multi-purpose Build-to-Rent development constructed within the air space above the existing operational railway station. Hornsby Station must remain operational and safely accessible to passengers throughout construction. The development will accommodate at least 100 essential workers and include residential accommodation, a professional gym, swimming pool, serviced offices, dining facilities, cafés, retail spaces and supporting facilities. The project follows a State Significant Development pathway and must consider: The actual physical constraints surrounding Hornsby Station. Existing railway platforms, tracks and station facilities. Passenger, pedestrian, vehicle and train movements. Surrounding roads, buildings, services and access restrictions. Transport for NSW requirements. Safety in Design. Live-rail corridor safety requirements. The Transport for NSW Digital Engineering Framework. I will provide the assessment brief, available project information, architectural concept, drawings and relevant work completed by the other group members. Required Software Applicants must be experienced in: Autodesk Civil 3D Autodesk InfraWorks Autodesk Forma, where useful for initial analysis PowerPoint Actual software-generated models, plans and visual evidence are required. Generic diagrams or written descriptions without supporting Autodesk files will not be accepted. Presentation 1 – Expression of Interest Prepare a broad Site Manager logistics and safety proposal specifically for Hornsby Station, including: Conceptual analysis of Hornsby Station and the surrounding site. Existing topography, roads, transport access, neighbouring buildings and services. Existing railway tracks, platforms, station access points and operational constraints. Air-space construction feasibility from a site-management perspective. Proposed construction access and egress points. Material delivery and unloading arrangements. Preliminary traffic and pedestrian-management strategy. Separation of construction activities from commuters and the general public. Preliminary crane location, crane type, operating radius and coverage. Material storage, laydown and staging areas. Site amenities and facilities. Hoarding, scaffolding, pedestrian protection and temporary works. Safe work areas, exclusion zones and public-protection measures. Preliminary construction staging and sequencing. Explanation of how Hornsby Station will remain operational. Basic live-rail, working-at-heights, lifting and public-safety risks. Safety in Design and TfNSW logistics considerations. Environmental controls and relevant sustainability considerations. Clear justification for all significant logistics decisions. Presentation 1 deliverables: Professional PowerPoint slides for the Site Manager section. Conceptual Hornsby Station site logistics plan. Preliminary crane coverage plan. Construction access and material-delivery plan. Traffic and pedestrian-management diagrams. Initial construction-staging diagram. Preliminary safety and risk summary. Speaker notes or a presentation script. Civil 3D, InfraWorks and/or Forma source files. High-quality screenshots demonstrating the software modelling process. Presentation 2 – Early Contractor Involvement Develop the Presentation 1 concept into a detailed construction methodology and site logistics proposal, including: Detailed construction methodology for building above Hornsby Station while it remains operational. Construction staging and sequencing supported by Civil 3D and InfraWorks. A Site BIM model showing how the site will operate during each major stage. Detailed crane positioning, lifting zones, operating coverage and oversailing considerations. Detailed construction traffic-control layouts. Pedestrian, commuter and station-access management. Rail-access and station-operational requirements. Material delivery, unloading, storage and vertical-transportation strategies. Temporary works, including hoarding, scaffolding, protection decks, crane zones and pedestrian protection. Risk and exclusion zones protecting workers, commuters and the public. Appropriate construction methods such as modular construction, prefabrication, top-down construction or other suitable solutions. Live-rail interface risk mitigation. Management of working at heights, confined spaces, lifting operations and night work. Safety in Design checklist and design-stage safety input. Emergency vehicle access, worker evacuation and public emergency arrangements. Construction work planned around peak travel periods, rail possessions, night work or temporary station closures. Explanation of how station services and emergency access will be maintained. Detailed justification explaining how each stage will function safely and efficiently. Presentation 2 deliverables: Professional and technically annotated PowerPoint slides for the Site Manager section. Fully developed Hornsby Station site logistics plan. Multiple construction-staging plans showing how the site changes between stages. Site BIM model showing crane zones, traffic layouts, temporary works, staging areas, risk zones and exclusion zones. Detailed construction-methodology content. Safety in Design checklist. Detailed risk register covering live-rail, worker and public-safety risks. Speaker notes or a presentation script. All editable Civil 3D, InfraWorks and PowerPoint files. High-resolution images and diagrams for inclusion in the group presentation. Work-in-progress screenshots demonstrating how the Autodesk models were developed. A short handover explaining the models, decisions and presentation content. Quality Requirements The work must be: Based specifically on Hornsby Train Station and its real surroundings. Suitable for an Australian and NSW construction context. Technically realistic and appropriate for a Tier 2 construction company. Consistent with Safe Work Australia, Safety in Design and relevant TfNSW live-rail requirements. Visually professional and suitable for a High Distinction-level submission. Fully editable for integration into the group presentations. Properly referenced using credible Australian sources. Coordinated with information provided by the Design Manager, Project Manager and Compliance Officer. Supported by genuine Autodesk models and evidence of the development process. Please do not apply if you intend to provide generic site plans or AI-generated written content without completing the required Civil 3D and InfraWorks modelling.
