Architectural Technologist

 
Background
Architectural technologists turn architects' designs into detailed technical drawings and specifications that builders can follow. They use computer software to create plans, sections, and 3D models, and they check that designs meet building regulations and safety standards. They work closely with architects, engineers, and construction teams to solve practical problems and make sure buildings are built correctly.
