Phil, Your drawing of a portal frame structure looking the other way is ambitious & looks good. It is hard to make out your notes, but the column under a rafter or beam is called a mullion These are usually seen at the end wall of a portal framed building.Overall your drawing looks clear & it seems you have identified all the significant components. Is the insulation & safety mesh shown?
The comments on your photos are good too. Try to be analytical. Being a C.M., you could focus on the construction process & comment on the storage of materials on site as well as the staging of different parts of the project. Good work so far. R.K.
