Graduate Engineers are important to any construction team, bringing both technical skills and practical problem-solving to complex projects. At AKN Engineering, based in Hertfordshire, our Graduate Engineers work closely with experienced site engineers and surveyors on major highways construction projects, helping to keep each stage of the project on track. Today, we’re giving you an inside look at a day in the life of one of our Graduate Engineers on a highways site, where responsibilities like setting out, monitoring progress, and quality control make a big impact.

In the construction industry, where every day brings new challenges and triumphs, the humble construction site diary stands as a silent sentinel, capturing the essence of progress, setbacks, and everything in between. In this week's AKN Engineering blog post, we delve into why construction site diaries are indispensable tools, exploring their purpose, key elements, best practices, and the evolving landscape of digital versus paper diaries.
