Key Skills:- Developing an understanding of different contract types and their requirements- Working with confidence on individual and group tasks- Expanding an understanding of drawing details and working closely with specifiers- Producing feasability studies, site surveys and building warrant packages- Using AutoCAD, SketchUp, Photoshop and Microsoft Office to a high level with an introduction to Revit

For my Part 1 placement year I worked for Comprehensive Design Architects in Edinburgh. I worked on numerous projects within the UK of different scales and typologies within the commercial sector and included working on numerous new shopping developments as well as Grade 1 listed buildings. Within the office I worked in teams of varying sizes working on different stages of the design process from feasibility studies through to construction and handover.Key Skills:- Developing an understanding of different contract types and their requirements- Working with confidence on individual and group tasks- Expanding an understanding of drawing details and working closely with specifiers- Producing feasability studies, site surveys and building warrant packages- Using AutoCAD, SketchUp, Photoshop and Microsoft Office to a high level with an introduction to Revit
