The ArchAdemia Podcast

In this episode we conclude our masterclass on working with consultants, by covering RIBA Stages 4 & 5. However, we've titled this video 'how to deliver a building' as we naturally digress into topics of co-ordinating a project with engineers, working with suppliers to obtain final specifications and working with contractors. This episode is not to be missed, for architects/assistants/students of all levels.
