WEEK OF ACKNOLWEDGEMENT

It was great to have my section acknolwedge this week, my boss wants to use it for the school project and for further projects. What a fun week, I was challenged to a copic and photoshop exercise for the school project. Had messy fun doing that and I still need much practice and development. Abit of administration came my way for a new project. I started a new project file from scratch, showing me the different sections of a project such as admin, drawings, costs, meetings etc. everything needs to be recorded.

I took sometime this week to work on my PSS progress mark 2 project. What an exciting learning challenge. I have gained so much about the professionalism of architecture. Learning the terms, teh conduct, the istitutes and visual for architecter. My boss was enthusiastic to help and loved that we were given such a projects to tackle. As the new PART XA, has been added to teh NBR, it seems that my boss is really engageing me in her learning process of this new section. She recieved a new programme to help her develop a report for regarding this section of the NBR for council submissions and guess what, I have to fill in the report for the Alster Avenue project. I worked firstly on the fenestration section, but I was working from plan to report, hus redesigning the plan and making calculations for the report and drawing up an aluminium works schedule/not a window schedule. I was exposed to terms such as SHGC, orientation, projects, shading, u value, R value,area and glazing etc, what an excitement.

Lets expore even bit of information about our passion.....!!
