Behind every good civil engineer is a project financial officer saying 'that's all well and good but can you do it cheaper?'

Actually in truth I reckon politicians shouldn't be allowed to make promises regarding roads or any major infrastructure.. Calliope Crossroad on the Bruce is a prime example.. They promised the public 45million to grade separate the two highways (Dawson and Bruce).. Then asked us how much it would cost.. Well major gas and Telstra services.. Gotta allow for the Bruce highway to be four lane.. Land resumptions and inflation.. Gonna cost about $112million.. For the cheap option..

after I finished I have to take my qualifications to the relevant state government (depending on what state I intend to build in) and get my builders licence...

that is only if I intend to build more than 2 properties in SA within a 2 year period for other people... I can build my own homes... one every 2 years without a builders licence as long as work is carried out by licensed trades people...

licence is just a formailty from what I can tell ... I could do the course through a builders association and get the licence all in one but its under $200 to apply for it on your own accord in SA or an extra $2000 to do the course through an independent place as opposed to tafe etc.

the course inst like a weekend thing freeze ,,, its 12 months for a cert 4 then 2 years for a diploma...

ive played around since I was a kid with building plans and crap it interests me on a weird level

must admit id like to one day maybe be a home designer/planner/ architect

Sounds alright.. I'm over looking for a sparky job, can't find sh*t.. Gonna go for my traffic management licence soon, only $250 and 1 day course
