GOOD SERVICE IS GOOD BUSINESS

CONSTRUCTION

When it comes to the design and execution of the infrastructure for each project we consider zoning requirements, the environmental impact of the job, the successful scheduling, budgeting, construction site safety, availability and transportation of building materials, logistics, inconvenience to the public caused by construction delays and bidding, etc.

Construction requires collaboration across multiple disciplines. Our architects manage the job while a construction manager, design engineer, construction engineer or project manager supervises it. For the successful execution of a project, we implement effective planning

The construction process is composed of six distinct stages below:

Concept  |  Contract and Bid Documents  |  Bidding  |  Field work  |  Construction payment  |  Completion

All corporation construction projects begin with planning and design also referred to as “architectural programming.” Numerous overlapping steps occur during this conceptual or design phase prior to actual construction of the task.

1. CONCEPT

An architect is the prime designer of a building and controls the overall plan, specifications, finished materials such as brick, paint, carpentry together with wall covering and other architectural features of the construction.

• Planning & Architectural programming- during the initial stages of the design process, the architectures and engineers have a number of meetings with the client in order to determine the purpose and objective of the proposed construction.

• Schematic plans- these are the first plans of facility and show the interrelationship between spaces and activities. All of the parties review the schematic designs and make any recommendations or changes if necessary before incorporated into the final schematic plans.

2. CONTRACT AND BID DOCUMENTS

In order to solicit construction propositions, builders provide potential bidders with the working drawing and plans for the proposed structure as well as assignment specifications, the terms of which are spelled out in contracts. This content is divided into two parts.

 

Part 1 consists of: Contract/ working drawings/ plans, Architectural plans, Structural plan, Mechanical plans and Electrical plans

 

Part 2: Behest requirement, Contract form, Contract conditions and Technical specifications

The second part of the contract and bid documents stage is the preparation of project specifications

3. BIDDING

4. FIELD WORK

5. CONSTRUCTION PAYMENT

Third stage of the construction process is bidding. Once an owner determines that a venture is feasible and that construction financing is available, client will ask for bids or proposals from the establishment or specialty contractors.

 

A copy of “the notice to contractors” will be shown in the schemes specifications, providing firm with the bidding procedures.

This is the stage where the actual construction takes place. But before then, there are number of procedures to be considered. The field work is broken down into building permits, subcontractors, scheduling subcontractors, drawings, project submissions and change orders. Field work entails building permits, subcontractors, scheduling of subcontractors, drawings, project submissions and change orders.

This is the stage of construction payments. The business operation is to collect money during and after the construction is completed.

 

When the corporation house completes a prescribed amount of work, the owner pays the firm for that amount of work as agreed on the contract.

This is the stage known as The Completion stage which readies the building for occupancy. After the project is completed, the architect and contractor prepare a set of plans identified as the built plans.

 

 

These plans represent exactly how the facility was constructed and they also incorporate all changes to the original construction plan. The service examiner will utilize the built plans when reviewing a cost segregation study because they represent the actual construction of the project.

 

6. COMPLETION

It is not the beauty of a building you should look at; its the construction of the foundation that will stand the test of time.
