What else are industrial trianees supposed to do in a road construction site aside observation and asking questions?

It depend on where u are
Where i am am being tasked lik an assistant engineer
I give instructions, i supervise, i correct
Doing so have been learning alot
I rep d engineer on site
Bt wise up na all those artisan go teach u work
Especially those in site lab

Just completed mine few months ago. Apart from observation,
we carried out lab soil test almost weekly
We set out Alignment using the total station
We carried out levelling survey
There was a provision for culvert and drainage so we studied the design document and the Engineer hepls us to redesign the culvert, provide the BBS and also the cost estimate.

I did something similar (construction of road drainage)

I'll need your advice on something else btw

Ok let me go straight to the point. So I'm currently interning under a certain engineer and the job is almost finished (3 months and 2 weeks out of the normal 6 months).

He tells me that the next site is at Abeokuta far from where I live. Do bear in mind also that the is a none payment industrial training and I've tried to renegotiate the agreement but to not avail.

So I am planning on focusing on learning structural engineering softwares and if time permits, Data Science. Here is the problem, I don't know if this path will in any way affect me during my defense (since I will not be able to complete the training period)

You must not learn everything from the company you are interning. Construction goes on everyday in Nigeria... If your boss goes to Abeokuta without you, just keep yourself busy by visiting any neighboring construction site, introduce yourself and learn. You never can tell where Favour will even come from...
