Construction does not begin when the excavator arrives on site.
Some of the most important decisions are made before construction starts.
Land Verification
The ownership and documentation of the property must be properly investigated.
Site Survey
A survey establishes important information about the site's boundaries, levels and physical characteristics.
Soil Investigation
Soil conditions can influence the appropriate foundation system and other structural decisions.
Architectural Design
The architect develops the building concept, floor plans, elevations and other required drawings.
Structural Design
Structural engineers determine how the building will safely support and transfer its loads.
Cost Planning
A realistic project budget should be developed based on the design, materials, labour and scope of work.
Construction Planning
A project schedule, procurement plan and construction methodology help establish how the project will be executed.
Approvals
The required regulatory approvals should be obtained before construction proceeds.
The better the preparation, the fewer surprises a project is likely to encounter.
