DESIGN AND BUILD

Design and build - pros and cons - Designing Buildings Wiki - Share your construction industry knowledge. Design and build is a term describing a procurement route in which a single contractor is appointed to design (or complete the design) and then to construct the works. This is as opposed to a traditional contract, where the client appoints consultants to undertake the design and DOORS - DESIGNING BUILDINGS WIKI Doors - Designing Buildings Wiki - Share your construction industry knowledge. Doors are openable barriers at the entrance to buildings, rooms or other spaces such as cupboards that allow people, vehicles or goods to enter and leave. They most commonly swing on hinges and include furniture or ironmongery that allows them to open, close, stay closed and sometimes to lock. MANAGEMENT CONTRACTING Management contracting - pros and cons - Designing Buildings Wiki - Share your construction industry knowledge. Management contracting is a procurement route in which the works are constructed by a number of different works contractors who are contracted to a management contractor.

DESIGN - DESIGNING BUILDINGS WIKI In order to create a harmonious solution, the building design process must rationalise a series of different and sometimes contradictory requirements that include aesthetics, the brief, budget, structure, regulations, climate, weather, security, privacy and so on. This process can be supplemented by the adoption of specific design

principles

HUMAN COMFORT IN BUILDINGS Human comfort in buildings - Designing Buildings Wiki - Share your construction industry knowledge. One of the most important considerations when designing a building is the extent to which it provides an environment that is comfortable for its occupants.
