A Busy Start to the Year

2008 started with a bang for A1 Drafting. A number of Planning Permits were achieved requiring the next phase of Building Documentation.

The A1 Drafting team were referred to/by various clients and have in turn been able to provide numerous quotations, designs and documentation in the early months of 2008.

One challenging project is a fifty five square residence in Sorrento complete with suspended swimming pool. Construction commenced in March.

The design team worked in conjunction with contractors, engineers, planners and the owners to achieve a modern residence to the client’s satisfaction.

A feature of this development is the use of 77 CFA piles ten metres deep along with the magnificent views that were captured by the design team for future occupants to enjoy inside and out of the home.

We are proud of the speed of Planning Approval achieved in obtaining a Planning Permit for a six unit development within an abandoned church site in Yarraville.

We commend the process and planner involved at Maribyrnong City Council.

Another challenge for A1 Drafting is the final documentation for a large factory complex in Templestowe. This wall panel structure has four metre high panel retaining walls and 38 metre clear span portal frames. Our work at this site over the past ten years has included rezoning, town planning, title consolidation, sewer easement relocation, new sewer construction and building documentation.
