Client’s sketches, ideas are translated into proper concept drawings which can be utilized to determine the feasibility ofa project or as the preludefor the next design phase.

Preliminary Designs

Based on concept designs preliminary designs are prepared to enable pricing and contracting to take place.

Detailed Engineering

After detailed design drawings are agreed detailed engineering can be done which will be detailed enough to build from. It will also include the necessary engineering calculations.

As Built Drawings

Upon completion of the project as built drawings incorporating the latest changes can be prepared, which will be an asset for the Client to accommodate future changes or expansion of their facilities.

Design Review and Verification

2.0 DESIGN

The project team has the technical knowledge and computer-engineering design tools (CAD) to prepare various design activities such as, but not limited to:

Design reviews

Structural calculations and design Architectural finishes details

Electrical and mechanical design reviews and calculations Design introductions Special Designs

2.1 Review the Design

 A primary function of the project team is the review of design. In case of queries or discrepancies, a formal Request for Information (RFI ) is issued to the responsible Engineer for feedback.

Functional Engineers In their respective areas of concern: Electrical, Mechanical, Civil, Architectural, and Technical they employ their combined and considerable experience to ensure that the electrical, mechanical, civil, architectural, and technical aspects of the project are properly  executed  by the technical and labor workforce.

Civil Engineers

A detailed project schedule is developed for every project using MS Project software package or primavera. A master plan tracking schedule is used to track all on-going submittals, procurement, and construction activities:

• Procurement schedule (materials submittals, approval, ordering)
• Shop drawing schedule (preparation, submittal, and approval)
• Detailed construction schedules that highlight critical activities and milestones.
• Detailed resource construction schedule.
