About Me

As a highly skilled CAD draftsman my number one aim is to provide a professional and personalised CAD drawing service to all my clients. I pride myself on producing top quality CAD drawings no matter the source, be it scanned drawings, hand drawn sketches or existing drawing mark-ups. I ensure all drawings are produced to the client's exact company standards and the latest CAD drafting guidelines, making all work consistent and easy to understand, navigate and update.

I produce all drawings using AutoCAD and constantly update my knowledge to ensure all drawings are created as efficiently and effectively as possible.

Areas of Expertise

  • Architectural

    Proposed and existing building elevations, floor plans and location maps. Stripping out guidelines and installation drawings for new fixtures, fittings, finishes, materials, flooring and ceilings.

  • Electrical Services

    Distribution board schematics, control panel diagrams and symbol schedules. Installation, alteration and removal drawings for all electrical services including: lighting, power, alarm systems, access controls and solar panelling.

  • Mechanical Services

    Installation, alteration and removal drawings for all mechanical services including: heating, ventilation, natural gas, water, waste, rain water harvesting and refrigeration.

  • 3D

    Creating 3D scale models of electrical and mechanical components/objects and 3D building plans, either from scratch or from existing 2D drawings.

  • Planning Applications

    Existing and proposed site plans, building elevations and land topography drawings, all drawn to exact planning application requirements as necessary for planning approval.

Key AutoCAD Skills

  • Dynamic Blocks and Symbols

    Creating dynamic blocks with attributes and adjustment parameters and storing them as symbols to allow elements to be easily reused and updated as necessary.

  • Annotations

    Using annotation scales to allow swift and automatic scaling of text and objects and using tables, dimensions and multi-leaders to display relevant associated information.

  • 3D

    Creating 3D solids, surfaces and meshes and combining them into 3D objects. Assigning materials, lighting and camera positions and using viewports to produce 2D views of the 3D environments.

  • Templates

    Creating custom templates to minimise drawing setup and reuse common standards. Using title block templates to provide consistent styling between client's drawings.

  • External Assets

    Embedding images, maps, pdfs and other assets to integrate them within the drawing, or adding them as external references to be issued alongside.

  • Layers

    Utilising layers to keep drawings organised, allow easy object isolation and make all drawings easy to update and modify in future revisions.
