  • My Typical Day: Out on a construction site

  • Read more

    My day usually starts with a coffee to wake me up. We will then have a site meeting to discuss what needs setting out and building on site that day.  I will then collect all the drawings I need and ask the work men what information they require.  The rest of the day will involve me showing people where and how to build things.  I will set out jobs then check the work to make sure it matches the drawings.
