What are Architectural Technician Jobs?

The primary focus of most Architectural Technicians is to create guidelines for the way in which a building is constructed, rather than come up with the design itself. This means working closely with Surveyors, Engineers and Architects to ensure both the design and building calculations are combined into an effective project plan.

When creating a blueprint, Architectural technician jobs often require additional information to cover some of the technical aspects of the design such as mechanical elements, materials, dimensions and weights. Meanwhile, Engineers will usually have these technical aspects covered but may need added support with structural elements and architectural formatting. You could say that Architectural Technicians bridge the gap between these two disciplines.
