Sean Harrington Architects
My Role: I was involved from design concept, planning stage through to construction on site until completion. I was co-responsible for submittal of part VIII drawings, preperation of tender drawings and specifications and liasing with the relevent design team members and the client. I prepared 3d computer models and fly through animations for the pre-planning consultation with the existing tenants.
As senior Architectural Technologist assisting the project Architect I was responible for any queries that arised during his absence. I also managed junior staff members ensuring drawing task where carried out.
While the project was on site I gained valuable experience of contract admistration, liasing with the main contractor and their sub contractors. I was responsible for attending site meetings, issuing site meeting minutes, issuing Architects instructions for additions or omission to the contract works. I also issued Site instructions pertaining to workmanship on site. I prepared certificate of payments when the practice recieved recommendations for payment by the Quantity Surveyor. Preparation and issueing of certificate of completion was also undertaken. All of the above procedures were under the supervision of the project architect.
