Calgary, Canada Volker Stevin Contracting Full time

​​​​Reporting to Foreman, a Screed Operator is responsible for the safe and efficient operation of the free-floating screed, attached to the paver vehicle. A Screed Operator controls the quantity and consistency of deposited asphalt, estimating the overall quantity for the project as well as the quantity needed to achieve the correct grade on the finished surface.​

General Responsibilities:

Operate the free-floating asphalt screed in a safe and appropriate manner. Perform daily maintenance and safety checks on equipment. Observe and control the distribution of asphalt mix to ensure uniformity to obtain specified compacted mat thickness and cross section while achieving proper surface drainage with minimal segregation. Ensure proper depth application of the asphalt on the screed using manual and automatic grade controls. Must setup, employ, and disassemble automatic grade controls. Adjust where and how the asphalt is placed, measure the width and thickness of the asphalt, and determine the application rate. Using the screed controls on the paver, control the thickness of the mat by tilting the screed forward to lower the depth and tilting the screed backwards to increase the depth. Set end gates and auger up asphalt to fill the screed. Observe the terrain ahead of the paver and adjust the screed to factor in dips and variations in the base to achieve level and consistent asphalt surfaces. Preheat the screed to hot mix asphalt temperature to avoid sticking and tearing in the mat. Coordinate, discuss, and plan project paving procedures and goals with fellow paving crew personnel. Train new employees on the safe and efficient operation of the screed. ,

The ideal candidate for this position will possess the following:
