How long does an architectural project typically last?
Let's go over the timeline for the construction of a new family home.
To whom it may concern. We are would like to build a double storey home in Rangeview on an erf that has spectacular views. We have quite a couple of ideas and would like to meet to discuss and get an idea of what it would cost to build our home and get the process of building our home as soon as it would be possible for us.
Am building a DIY workshop with a high roof so that I can use some of the space a storage. But I do not want to pour a slab because it's too involving. I'd also like this workshop to as close to sound proof as can be. It will be about 4 x 10-12m, put it's maximum floor size at 48 sq m. However, we shall make it go up quite a bit. For noting. I have neighbours on two sides so most of the light will come from the front; with glass blocks up on either side of the neighbours, to maintain their privacy. I'll obviously seek their consent before the NMB approvals.
I am in the process of purchasing a house for which there are no plans. My preferred bank is requiring certified plans for the house to clear the financing. However I am concerned that the process might cause problematic delays. I would like to know what the realistic cost and timeline would be for getting plans drawn up and registered.
Four bedrooms, second level including office, studio, lounge, large bedroom with walk in closet, bic, 4 piece bathroom. 1st level - knock out some interior walls, renovate 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, renovate kitchen and extend two exterior walls, remove outside walls and build stackable glass doors, create a fireplace or wood stove centrally located on ground floor, plus more.
Good Ventilation, a conveyor will stick out of the enclosed building and a the will be openings for incoming and outgoing pipelines. Therefore unsure if an air-conditioned space is a possibility. The describes the exterior of the building. The interior will consist of a steel/iron structure that holds the major pieces of equipment in place which at full capacity will weigh about 10-15 tons and staircases are needed to access the equipment.
We require an architect to serve on a Specifications Committee to determine the specifications that should be included in a tender for the construction of a Community Arts Centre. STAND is an implementing agency for Provincial Government. We were tasked to draft a tender document to invite submissions for the Construction of the Arts Centre. We however require the expertise of an architect/ engineer to draft the specifications that need to be included in the tender document.

The house is an older 3 bedroom, 1 study Sydenham home that has had some renovations done to it by past owners. But it still has old pressed ceilings and sprung wooden floors and is not open plan. The house also has some old finishes and non functional aspects. Our favourite aspect of the house is the view of the Linksfield Mountain which we would like to remodel the house to face as a feature. Currently the lounge and dining areas face the other side. We want to with economic and Pre existing structures remodel the following: A) Make the house open plan, functional and modern. B) Make the living area face the mountain C) Make the floors solid D) Have modern ceilings E) Have an improved entrance F) Have improved exterior modern design G) Have an on suite bathroom to each bedroom
