The design phase kicks off with concept development, where you define the project's scope, budget, and timeline while identifying the target market, location, and building requirements. Next up is schematic design, which involves creating preliminary designs, floor plans, and elevations to determine the building's layout, size, and features. This is followed by design development, where the design is refined, materials are selected, and construction details are outlined.
When it comes to prefab construction, there are several approaches, including:
- Modular Construction: Modules are built in a factory with electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems installed.
- Panelized Construction: Wall panels, floor systems, and roof trusses are prefabricated for on-site assembly.
The benefits of prefab construction are numerous - reduced waste, improved quality, increased efficiency, and faster construction times, to name a few. As for general contracting, effective project management is key, overseeing the design, permitting, and construction processes, as well as site preparation, to ensure a smooth project delivery.
