  • It really comes down to what you want to pay him for
    but in a nutshell the working dwgs in particular detailing
    remember drawing time costs
    important elements would be
    layouts
    elevations
    roof detailing
    wall construction / insulation
    tanking
    Producing the specification
    submitting the planning applications
    remember the basic construction details don't vary much from build to build
    get the basics from him to get you thro planning / enough basic detailing for the works to be priced by the builder
    Plumbing heating electrical all can be agreed with your builder using the plans produced agree with him what you want and let them produce working drawings the engineer will produce the structural detailing needed from the architects details Inc drainage layouts also calcs for building control
    if you want any advice / info drop me a pm and I'll mail over my number

  • Cheers, that's really useful, trying to avoid blurring the lines between architect and project manager.

    Meeting a couple of architects in the next couple of weeks so will see how they see things working.
