Is it possible to have illegal aliens doing road construction for government?
or doing work that you might normally associate with being done by regular american citizens or legal residents...like delivery truck drivers? I see a lot of signs that this might be going on, but of course, I have no proof. But theoretically speaking, once the illegal gets his false social security number, and states drivers license, he can literally apply for any job that does not require him to communicate with customers. A furniture delivery truck crew of 3 workers may have one person who speaks some english but the other 2 need not speak it at all, and certainly a road construction crew needs no english skills at all.

Probably working for a contractor doing work for the state. Wee it here all the time. Kentucky is doing repairs to a local bridge. They contracted it out to a private firm. I drive across it everyday and half the people I see working ar Hispanics. I can't believe they're all legal.What is the purpose of the long roles, of what looks like hay, along road side construction sites?
I keep seeing these things where they are doing road construction. I was assuming it was to reduce ground erosion at the site, but that was only an assumption.

Actually It's a EPA requirement to keep any topsoil from entering the storm sewer in case of heavy rains. When the site is under construction allot of bare dirt is exposed and can be quickly washed into the storm sewer system. You also see Black fabric fences built that are about two feet high and are buried into the ground. They are called silt fences. Stiff fines can come from the EPA to the contractor if they do not take the proper measures for erosion control. http://www.constructorbooks.comHow much do immigrant construction workers earn?
Such as road construction or new home building? Illegal workers then I live in a new neighborhood and they start pounding and hammering away at 7:30am all the way until 8 or 9pm. Do they get paid when the job is done or how does that work?

I've been a landscape construction laborer for a long time, and the guys that I work with get paid exactly the same as me. $10 per hr. Most contractors pay all their laborers the same amount, unless they are highly skilled in which case they get more. I my experience, it is about skill and how hard you work not the color of your skin or if you have a U.S birth certificate. I work all day in the sun with these guys and they are some of the nicest most dedicated people I have ever known. And yes sometimes we do start at 6:00 am and go home at 7:pm. Giving up everything to come here for their children's sake. Now that's a true American.Why does road construction take so long? Does it really take 6 months to repave a road?
Usually the road just sits closed with no one working on it for weeks! Why does it take so long?

Question answered by MotoMan
Depends upon on the road and who is doing the work. Some roads are repaired by local road crews. When that happens the repairs are usually small and are completed fairly quickly. For larger jobs contracts are used to hire contsruction contractors. The contracts will typically have a time limit for completing the work. If the contractor can make more money by completing another job ahead of another he has already started, the crews go to the second project,as along as the first is completed on time. This scenario is only of of several common scenarios for having a construction project, like a street, drag on for longer than is should.Must this company still perform under the contract?
GCI gravel contractors won a bid for road construction contract with the state of Alaska. It won the low bid because it had a gravel pit right next to the site of construction. Later, GCI found out that using the pit violated local zoning laws. GCI now has to transport the gravel from another location which will cost an additional $20000. Instead of making a profit, GCI would now lose money on the job. Does GCI have to perform under contract?

Question answered by sprite_4fire
If the contract included a clause that the gravel was to come from that specific pit and if for any reason that pit was unable to be used that the contract was void, then GCI could get out from under the contract. If no clause like this existed, where the contract was contienginet on this or other conditions, then the contract is still binding. This is my understanding of the situation as presented However I am not a specialist in Alaskan Contract law so I cannot know if there are local or state laws that allow some sort of escape clause.Must this company still perform under the contract?

Yes, "unless" the bid stated that the price was dependent on their being able to use the local pit. It was their pit - it was their duty to know the laws relevant to using it, not the customers. Richardwho is in charge of engineering structures of a road , like bridges?what is his title?
I am translating a report and i want to know what is my job title in english. i am working in for a road construction contractor firm and i am responsible for supervising the work of labourers when they are digging the ground to pour concrete for foundations of bridges for the roads, i am also responsible for other engineering structures of the road, but i am not responsible for earthworks like asphalt and binder and toopka and base and sub base and sub grade. what titles could i have?( say anything reaches your mind including the necessary work experience such a title needs)

Civil Engineering? But that isn't really what civil engineers do. They figure out the requirements, and may assist the drafter in the drawings, but they calculate the works of it. All the technicalities and the structured materials to build it. --Rob :)How many out of work Americans were re-employed in Obama's shovel ready road construction projects?
Obama just doesn't get that it that you can build 1000 of roads and not regain a single private sector job in the process. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/19/us/19stimulus.html

In my county, there has been precisely one road project, which widened a section of highway at an intersection and repaired potholes along a stretch of road. It took an asphalt paving contractor all of perhaps two days to install a rock base, binder and topping. This is not exactly my idea of a jobs program. Oh, and the roadway into an industrial park where a developer is ready to risk his own private money to build facilities that are ready for a new business to move into? No federal dollars for that! (Much of the stimulus money in my state has been diverted to paying members of government unions such as the NEA and SEIU to make sure they don't lose their jobs)Are you also agreed that these are the best business in India.?

I have a company that produces Laser Etched art work on Granite. My question is, do I need to be a licensed contractor in the state of California when I do instalations? We Virtuallly always we use z-clips to mount our etchings to the wall. We are not permantly attached anywheres other then some screws into the studs. The cost would be generaly over $500 to install. (This of coarse includes travel etc.) The way I understand it is if your not permanantly attaching to the structure your not required to have a license. I wouldnt consider a screw a permanent attachment. Does anybody have any insight on this? Thanks

California Business & Professions Code 7026 defines a "contractor" as "synonymous with 'builder' and, within the meaning of this chapter, a contractor is any person who undertakes ... or submits a bid to ... construct, alter, repair, add to, subtract from, improve, move, wreck or demolish any building, highway, road, parking facility, railroad, excavation or other structure, project, development or improvement, or to do any part thereof, including the erection of scaffolding or other structures or works in connection therewith..." If the work is not permanent construction, alteration or repair to a building, then it would not fall within the definition of "contractor." Besides, the Contractors State License Board has no license classification for "picture hanger."
