Working on larger projects like this one, having well drawn plans really helps the design process go faster. When there were questions about items on the plan, communication via email or a quick phone call to answer items quickly was a big help. Being informed of a precast dimension issue very early on, allowed the trusses to be designed correctly before submitting them for approval. Knowing how the framers were going to frame the north and south ends of the building allowed me to work on the correct trusses. When a 2nd framing crew was brought in to work on the south end of the building, I was able to switch the area I was working on without issues or delays. All of these things combined, allowed me to design and submit the approvals ahead of schedule. This allowed them to bring in another crew and to get the building done ahead of schedule.
