This week went well overall although for some reason, the days at work seem as if they going by longer than before. I'm setting in nicely here in the office and also getting more aquainted with my mentor.
Since starting the heritage extension project, my partner and I had visited the building thrice to ensure that our measurements are as accurate as possible as there are no existing plans for us to work from. We have also begun drawing up the plans which has brought on numerous roblems that had to be straightened out. The construction of the building cannot be completedly figured out as we cannot see through the existing walls. The plans that we are drawing up therefore only contain the information that we are certain of. This building was built in the 60's and it shows stylistically and the building material was used in abundance.
Being in this office environment helps me be a part of an order of how things are being run and executed, which is something that I'm greatful for as it can work for me personally as well. I'm learning so much from my intern partner and everyone else the office. it really helps to be on the same floor as the employees who all play individual roles in the design and execution of a building.
