On Site Technical Representative
If you choose, we can supply an on site service technician to assist with the construction of your Big Top structure. Our technician will be experienced and proficient in all aspects of the construction of the supplied shelter. Our customers often find that they save the cost of the technical representative in labor and equipment costs alone. In addition you receive the highest quality product available.

Terms and conditions

Step one, contract for the service with enough time to plan and schedule the installation. On site, our technician is responsible for a standard workday of 8-10 hours. Tools, permits, special equipment, and fees are to be supplied by the customer, unless contracted in advance with Big Top. If the structure has a conventional foundation, the foundation should be in place and cured prior to the arrival of the technician. Unless otherwise stated, our technician is not responsible for productivity of the crew or the quality of its work. Management of the crew is the sole responsibility of the customer. One person who speaks English is required at all international job locations. Safety equipment and their procedures are not the responsibility of the technician. Our technician is not responsible for labor relations (i.e. union disputes) or the delays that they may cause.

Step two, prepare the site for the arrival of the structure and the technical representative. The site needs to be reasonably level from end to end. The site needs to be clear of obstructions above and below grade. Please check for and mark all utilities that are in the working area. Our technician will contact you the week prior to arrival to discuss the list of tools, equipment, labor, and schedule for construction.

 

Step three, arrival of the technician on site. The technician will train or assist your crew for the specified contact period.
