BRINTON'S CARPETS PROCESS

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 24TH

This is me at the Ritz Carlton, working on my actual product.

What I am drawing up on the computer is this set of plans.

PRODUCT

Tools of the trade

To create my senior project I used;

PRODUCT

My job is to draw the areas that will eventually be carpeted.

As seen on my plans the 1st floor of the Ritz

Carlton consists of; 2 large rugs, 4 hallways, 1

large ballroom, 1 small ballroom and a gallery

room.

MY JOB

These 2 rugs are in the main lobby of the hotel.

2RUGS

4 HALLWAYS

BALLROOMS AND GALLERY

Pillars extruding from the walls in hallways

PROBLEM

PROBLEMS

Finding the exact location for every pillar in the room took many

measurements and lots of figuring out.

PROBLEMS

Making the correct measurements is crucial, as even 1 inch can throw off a

whole project.

PROBLEMS

Something very small can cause one the biggest grief. This set of steps had

me very troubled and in a dilemma. (Resolution seen on plans.) Explain why.

4” RISER

PROBLEMS

In the small ballroom of The Ritz Carlton a divider wall was put up at the

time of my site measure. This ended up slightly throwing my plans off.

PROBLEMS

The 2nd floor of the Ritz Carlton

consists of a very intricate set of stairs,

1 long hallway, 1 elevator lobby and 9

meeting rooms.

2ND FLOOR

PICTURES

The stairs were a big problem for me because

of the way that they are shaped.

You can see on my plans how I drew the stairs

separately from the main plan and inserted all

of the dimensions of each step into them.

PROBLEMS

The stairs from the first floor are wide and have

railings that get narrower as you go up. Because

of the angles of the railings each step has a

different measurement.(RTP)

PROBLEMS

Going back to the gallery room where I used the notation 4” Riser, I also had

to use the same notation on these stairs. If it wasn’t for my Project Facilitator

Johnny Massey I would not have known to do this.

PROBLEMS

My Project Facilitator is Johnny Massey and I chose him because

he is head of operations at Brintons Carpets USA.

He has lots of experience and has a great

knowledge of the carpet industry.

PROJECT FACILITATOR

At the start of this year I wrote a research

paper about the carpet industry, this relates

to my product because……………………..

RESEARCH PAPER

From my research paper I learned that the commercial carpet industry belongs

to three main powerhouses; Brintons, Tai Ping and Constantine.

CARPET INDUSTRY

Brintons Carpets is a firm that was formed in my home town of

Kidderminster.

They are the world leaders in carpet manufacturing with factories all over the

world.
