w4gcg9 | architecture_train | 0.86 | How do you deal with engineer judgment? Everytime I talk with an engineer or construction worker, they always tell me they could've done the drawing better or it is too slow, or just don't appreciate your work. Some bigger architects have the respect, but fresh architects are looked down on. But they also don't see the bigger picture and are observing everything only from practical point of view. Just wanted to know everyone else's experiences. | ih1yjjj | ih2gn2h | 1,658,413,527 | 1,658,420,426 | 0 | 5 | These people are called “jerks.” Unfortunately they are out there walking around, existing, doing their laundry just like you and me. Don’t pay them any mind. | I'm going to assume you are also newish to the industry. We all have ego and sometimes this can get in our way. I use to get upset until I started: A. Taking the criticism as a way to improve myself and my work. B. Understanding that the architecture feild is full of ego maniacs C. There's 100000 different ways to do something and I'm not always right. D. Giving less fucks Care less about what others think and just focus on you and your deliverables. Put out the best work you can, learn and the do even better on the next project. That's all you can do ❤ | 0 | 6,899 | 5,000 | ||

They’re compliant is trying buy time or save money by blaming the architect. I’ve had projects have 2 minor plan check comments and it glides through easily, then the contractor tries to say the drawings are mess. In nearly every case, the guys in the field don’t want to read text. They want to see graphics, and dimensions and that it. | 1 | 2,517 | 5 | ||

I've had light hearted interactions with engineers about me making life hard for them but never an actual complaint about drawing quality. Have you been a dick to them? Are your drawings actually shit? Also, are they paid hourly? Most will agree a % fee for their works and anything outwith that is a claim for additional fee. For small things like moving a column a few mm it won't be worth additional fee but it is very tedious to re-do things like that. Doing small tasks for no fee is literally burning hours. I would be annoyed about having to re-draw shit too. In my experience the 'fresh' architects that are looked down on are the ones who think they are better than everyone else because they're an architect. A lot of guys will have decades of experience and won't appreciate a young person with a big ego coming in like they've drawn the Sistine Chapel. Many people won't care about your vision, they are paid to do their job and engineers and contractors work on numbers and setting out, not what you want someone to feel when they see it. | I'm going to assume you are also newish to the industry.

If you're new and need to learn from them, learn from them. Ask a lot of questions, and you will earn their respect (a lot of the time.. this is construction, so sometimes people are just salty). Construction people *LOVE* teaching their craft. If you've been doing this a while... Well, you probably wouldn't care so nevermind, haha. But at the end of the day, designing/documenting and then constructing buildings is tough work. You're never going to create a perfect set of documents, and even if you did there's going to be someone on site who can't read them and then they will blame you for that shortcoming. My role these past 3ish years is as an Owner's Rep. It's my job to hire architects and contractors, then manage the project for the owner. I see a LOT of drawing sets these days. Even the better ones get shit on by the field. So, you just gotta get used to that. But if you're new and building your skills, use the opportunity to learn and ask questions. You'll see pretty quickly that a lot of their complaints are just complaints. But they WILL have some good insight for you. I've been doing this a long time (hell, I even became a licensed GC at some point) and still like to take the time to ask questions on site if I don't know something. | Working in new jersey I have yet to encounter engineers who A - actually submit their work on time.

Your first approach should always be to collaborate and make sure you've worked things out together.

Everytime I talk with an engineer or construction worker, they always tell me they could've done the drawing better or it is too slow, or just don't appreciate your work. Some bigger architects have the respect, but fresh architects are looked down on. But they also don't see the bigger picture and are observing everything only from practical point of view. Just wanted to know everyone else's experiences. | ih4mcxk | ih1yjjj | 1,658,451,080 | 1,658,413,527 | 1 | 0 | Suggest working in a practice that specialises in technical/delivery if you are serious about getting good at it. Sounds like you are not getting enough guidance in your current place. There are practices that take on planning architects projects, get them right, submit nma's to the council if required, package them up into a cookbook for the contractor/developer to build, and done fast. | These people are called “jerks.” Unfortunately they are out there walking around, existing, doing their laundry just like you and me.

dwv2k5 | architecture_train | 0.86 | [Ask] Is there a way I can get an internship in architecture while being in first year engineering. I am currently in mechanical engineering but considering to transfer to architectural studies. I think the best way to see if I really like it is to actually intern at a firm but since I'm not in that field of study currently, it is much harder. I'm proficient in AutoCAD, Sketchup, and graphic design related softwares -have done multiple self projects with these softwares and made an online portfolio. I am also willing to learn Revit. If I create more self projects using Rivit, will it be enough to secure an internship even though I 'm not enrolled in an architecture-related degree? Is there any other way to get good real-world experience on what it is like to have a career in architecture? Any advice would go a long way! | f7mgnow | f7mf1vw | 1,573,862,792 | 1,573,861,558 | 1 | 0 | The best thing you can do to show firms you're interested is to seem interested; attend career fairs, firm tours, and just general networking opportunities, and really absorb what architects have to say and be outgoing. Asking questions or making connections gets potential employers to remember you later on, and that can be enough to move from the maybe pile to the yes. Don't sweat being an engineering student, not many internships (unfortunately) give interns much design potential regardless. Also, consider shadowing architects; internship is a scary word as for a position to truly be an internship, it needs to fit certain qualifications. Find local architecture firms you like and ask if there are any shadow/part-time opportunities on the horizon, and again make that impression. (P.S., It'll make me a little nit-picky sounding to say this but it's extremely important: don't say you're "proficient" in anything to an employer, vocally or in writing. You can say you have skills in, and if you're super sure you're a master you could even say skilled in, but saying proficient is a really common mistake applicants make and it's a big no-no because it can easily be considered lying to an employer.) | Yea i dont see why not, most firms need someone to begin drafting and stuff. You probably have a bit more knowledge than typical arch grads, since you deal with the engineering. | 1 | 1,234 | 1,000 | ||

Just indicate that in your cover letter you are interested in the field and that your unique background sets you apart from other potential applicants. Your job as an intern is mostly being a draftsman and post-production in graphics if you have the skills. Remember that the way you were taught how to utilize CAD programs in school is different compared to a professional environment so don't kill yourself on trying be a master of all programs. | Yea i dont see why not, most firms need someone to begin drafting and stuff.

They’re great for making models from quick study models to final review quality models and allow for a lot more freedom in form and texture than standard model making materials. The Ender 3 Pro or Ender 3 V2 are great budget printers (and go on sale during Black Friday/cyber Monday!). I have the V2 and it’s been invaluable in getting my models done during my M.Arch program. And after he graduates, you guys can use it to make whatever you want for fun. | 0 | 702 | 5 | ||
