To end the semester....

although i am finding myself frequently overwhelmed by the challanges which i am confronted with whilst studying architecture/constuction management at deakin university, i am enjoying every step of the journey and i would not change a thing. to finalise my blog for SRT 151 i have left some links to some videos depicting the developements in dubai, i thought this would be appropriate because when ever i am feeling as though it is all just to much for me i look to great projects such as these for inspiration!

i mean just have a look at what is shown in some of these videos, imagine being able to say that you were apart of the design team! ..thats where i want to be!

just click on the squares! all the best and thanks to Jeremy Ham for a fantastic learning opportunity.....

site visit #6


this is a commercial site which i visited in melbournes west. its a set of offices which is being constructed by means of pre cast concrete panel construction. this can be seen from the images as there is no floor slab anywhere which would have made tilt up concrete panel construction possible.
