So, since the handover of the vi=ehicle taxi impoundement that I blogged about earlier last month, phase 2 had to be completed which consisted of an office and cashiers building on site.
I was given this project to do from the start of my time here and believe it or not, it has yet to be submitted to council!!
The client has been confused about it's design from the beginning as the budget never fitted and has going back and forth with ideas all the time. Ideas of which I was drawing plans for...constantly having to change. Welcome to the real world, I guess.
So this past few weeks we have made a sketch proposal and hoping with our fingers crossed that this is the final time that the design will change. Yes, I have been changing all the previous submission plans set to the new design, what a task! From construction technicalities to schedules!
I am however pleased to say that I have gained a tremendous amount of knowledge concerning construction details as Ive had to do some research on methods that is appropriate.
As a technician upon qualifying, we arwe expected to make things work and make suitable suggestions, that I have started to do.
Lisa has set up a sort-of lecture for us on friday by one of the quantity surveyors in the office who will be taking us through the building processes and the legal side, documentation and processes thereof so Im definately looking forward to it since Ive been quite interested in the business side of the industry and I myself am interested in doing a Project management course after my BTech.
Anyways, let me get back to work and Ill update you soon on how things are going
