It was getting to summer and I was keen to start, so I asked our local bc if I could do a phased building regs submission.
they said yes.
so I submitted the drawings for piling and ringbeam design from the structural engineer, while we were getting the piles in we asked for a list of stuff bc wanted.
very little in fact, sap assessment was the one they really wanted, the rest was just loads of drawings forwarded from other designers.
structural design for roof timbers.
structural design for all lintels and steel work
structural design for block n beam.
we had the house up to wall plate level before we had submitted everything.
we also had a couple of conditions relating to cladding choices and stone, I told them that I could start building because these conditions didn’t effect the construction of the house it was only the outside facade, we got these signed off a few weeks before we placed the orders for the materials.
