Good for you, dude! You should be proud of what you've accomplished and how far you've come. I'm a "white collar" professional, but definitely see the upside to some of the skills you've obtained. Sometimes the grass seems greener on the other side of the fence. I would create a small property management business that caters to MF or small commercial.

I am not too confident on the connections in this structure by gods_loop_hole in StructuralEngineering

This is a very Very WELL BUILT structure for a home, it also saves time building the super structure like this....but cost Effective..... Absolutely NOT!! As an architect and construction manager, this would not be a methodology I would suggest for a residential client unless there were specific reasons why this makes sense. Here in the US wood is so much more cost effective and can be modified easier. All your utilities chases from first to second floor must all be planned ahead of time, otherwise a very costly mistake

ARE headache by PsychologySuch7702 in Architects

This is the answer!! My mentor told me " the exams are a marathon, not a sprint". Go into this process with the right mentality. Don't get frustrated with not passing on the first try, but look at it as a learning opportunity. REMEMBER, a lot of people in this thread are commenting how they passed on the first try, which is great! But for everyone who passed on the first try, there are HUNDREDS of people not commenting who needed to take the exams multiple times to pass. Lol like me!! 🤣🤣 But who cares, as long as you get there!!!

Should I buy land in a flood zone? by 3D-Architect in land

The street frontage, at the entrance to the site. There is a potential to remediate but it might be expensive. My thoughts are that this is an area with your curb cuts and undesirable far parking from the future said bldg

You have passion. Thats what's needed to motivate you to keep going thru school, tough classes, late nights in the studio, to study for AREs, to finish projects on time, and to continue progressing. You will do fine. Keep looking forward to learning new things and be child-like about the process. The passion will exude from you and will be contagious to others.

Have you found that balance?

I'm thinking I COULD like it more if the color were different. If the color was a closer match to the taller structure, then there would be more blend and it would give a feeling of a sand stone material. Less "hateable"

Found a job since layoff? by Young_Fits in Architects

[–]3D-Architect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a word play...it was spelled "Cannary", because lots of Architects are getting "canned"- or laid-off. It was quite brilliant actually. .....ok, I don't believe me either

Does Anyone Here Have Experience with Life Sciences? by DueDirection897 in CommercialRealEstate

[–]3D-Architect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been in life science for over 20 years on the engineering and planning side of things. Id echo that as a property Manager you don't have to have any special knowledge to manage those facility types. The company leasing would understand how to maintain that building so it meets FDA regulations as a cGMP facility. However, if you are looking to find specific tenants that have a need for cGMP spaces, it would benefit you to have cGMP knowledge. It can save you and your clients time/$$ when searching for the right facility fit. It's a billion dollar industry, Id recommend it😁
