Done and dusted

I managed to finish that sketchup drawings:) heres the photos before i carry on..

So thats just a few of those:) Anyways.. The rest of the week i was busy with working drawings and submitting those to council. Thats ended up taking up most of the week. Today I have a measured drawing to set up so that the changes can be implemented. Also, i think i have to go to council again this morning. Anyways, i actually have a ton of work to do so i have to get back to that.

Take care and enjoy work..*

                      

Its HOLIDAY

This week went by relatively quick? Although it helps to be swamped with work. So my focus this week was council submissions. Ive learnt that the quickest way to find out what your plan is missing is to submit it to council and (no surprise) you are sent back with a whole lot of lil things you have managed to over look somehow or the other. Monday coming although, i think ill be going back to council for the same to 2 plans as it needed a letter of resolution - another thing learnt - as the owner of the property is part of a company/trust fund or something like that. Also, i had to draw up another house for someone in Eastern Cape.. This ladsy is so sweet and it is a great feeling when someone genuinly appreciates what you do for them so today i was setting up a 3D for her. I will post those pics up (if blogger allows me too). But anyways, the greatest news of today is that..

TERM 2 HAS ENDED!! Till when th holidays are i dont know, im just glad its here already. (Although headng back, MIP will be in our face (0o;) lol)

Anyways, take care..*

Submission Day

Another week, another post. So this week was pretty hectic.. A project i got when i first started came back to me as the client wanted a pitched roof instead of the flat roof he initially asked for, so thats what i started off with. Another thing was that i had to draw up two offices with some basic changes along with a canopy for a new restaurant that will be opening soon. These small things really does take up most of your time hey? There a few things pending to go to council, although im dreading that considering how long it always takes. I also miss doing 3Ds, can you believe that? Oh and lets not forget that its submission day for us 2nd years. All my stuff is handed in and updated on my blog:) But anyways, its spring clean Friday at the office so i got to lend a hand.

Take care..*

Blue Friday

This week i was actually quite busy. One thing i dont understand tho.. Why do people love building their houses before the plan is actually approved..? Do they WANT to get fined? But hey, thats how it goes. My focus this week was two houses and a mini alteration to a meat centre.. That all needs to go to council and im really hoping it can be done next week so that can be off my head. Oh and another project that was given to me is a doctors surgery.

Anyways, thats that.. Take care*

Flu week..

So this week seemed to have been a flu week for nearly everyone in the office, and im still on the beginning stages - trying to keep my eyes open typing this post although not succeeding 100%. Anyways, this week was quite interesting. The project im head of has been printed and sent off to the other members involved although im still waiting on the response. Another plan has also been printed and that one should be sent to council soon - just have to wait for the clients signatures. Yesterday a sketch plan of two floors of apartments was plonked on me - 'working drawings please'. So ive been busy with that yesterday, and ofcourse carrying on with it this morning. So i have to get cracking in that case.

Btw, has anyone else had trouble uploading photos on blogger? Ive been trying to upload rendered photos of my hub although it does not want too>

Anyways, take care..*

Voting:)

Lol ok i didnt vote.. although i didnt mind the benefits of a public holiday:).. So this week i focused on the last posts project i mentioned. I finished the working drawings (yippee) all checked up.. Although that has to be emailed to the other members who are also involved with this project. Once that has been approved i have to take to council and that long part will have commenced. In the mean time, i was busy with the required typical details, window schedule, electrical layout and today i have to get started on the finishing schedule. Although that i need a sit down with one of the bosses. Also, i was in a meeting with regards to a different house.. that is also in the process of becoming a working drawing.

Anyways, i have some work to do
Take care..*

Busy Busy

My apologies for the late post.. Blogger was out maintaining its site

Anyways.. So this week turn quite a turn. From doing next to nothing to being completely in charge of two whole projects - and i mean handling absolutly everything on my own. A bit challenging, but some good experience nonetheless. So i have to get the sketch proposals done, and when that has been approved, got to get going with those working drawings. With that i have to supply some details and also the necessary finishing, window and door schedules. Not forgetting the electrical layout - which can be a pain to be honest. Also, i have to deal with taking it myself to council, deal with the clients and if im still there when it commences.. Do the site visits myself and deal with the builders. Lol quite a mouthful hey? With that out of the way.. We had a meeting Friday morning at the office as our company and another one are merging.. Hence we were all the 'founding staff' of the company as they put it lol.. So the next few weeks will probably be hectice with all the changes that are going to apply to all of us at the office..

But i have to get back to my tech work now - sadly

Take care..*
