What does the day look like?
Your day usually runs 09:00 to 18:00 in an office: you work in Revit, Archicad, AutoCAD or NBS Chorus to produce drawings, BIM models, details and specifications. Planning applications, building regulations submissions, technical specs, project budgets, billing and stage sign-offs take a large part of the day.
From outside, people imagine 80% sketching and creative model-making. In reality it is about 15% concept design and sketching, 45% BIM/detailing/specification/compliance, 25% contract administration, consultant coordination, client meetings and email, and 15% site inspection, contractor management and accounting. A normal week is 40 hours, but before planning submissions or tender deadlines it can become 45 to 55 hours. There is no standard night shift, but evening public consultations or council planning committee hearings can happen.
