Many people in the construction field come from the field to the office and are given a month of classes that teach basics. They know enough to get their
drawings produced, but not a lot more than that. Some are fortunate to be able to work nexe the side by side with a seasoned Cadillac user. Seems like more and more sub contractors are not making shop drawings in order to save money. Just the other day, a fire sprinkler 1/2 floors because he did not coordinate. Plus they were designed build. Do any of you guys still see electrical, plumbing, chill water and data coordinate drawings anyore? But then again, I'm doing schools. Things were a little different when I was doing high rise,museums and places like Gene tech. Do any of you still see fully coordinated drawings?
