Lot 2 - Project Architect (above 50 units) for Feasibility, Planning and Detailed Design stages. Inclusive of site appraisal, planning pack, site-specific working drawings and ongoing support through the construction stage.
Lot 3 - Project Structural Engineer for Feasibility and Detailed Design stages. Inclusive of preliminary information, detailed designs and ongoing support through the construction stage.
