from various discussions on the internet these few days, i'm given to believe that a typical thai architect would provide the following:
1. architect drawing
2. foundation drawing
3. shop drawings
options are:
4. boq
i have emailed you the plans. i do have more details drawings down to 1:25 scale, but i do not know whether they constitute shop drawings.
i definitely dont have foundation drawing.
i am also given to believe that shop drawings are not necessary for a contractor, ie only architect and foundation drawings are necessary.
if however, that proves to be not the case, i would need foundation + shop drawings.
so i need your confirmation on this point.
the various options at this point are as follows:
1. i) simple foundation only
ii) analysis of whether number of columns can be reduced further
2. foundation + shop
3. foundation + shop + boq
ultimately, which option is selected would be based on what is necessary vs the costs involved
