Frequently Asked Questions
You’ve Got Questions; We’ve Got Answers
With over 350+ years of combined experience, we’ve learned a thing or two about our industry. Here’s everything you need to know about commercial preconstruction services.
What are pre-construction services?
Preconstruction services are the first step in developing a new construction project. Both residential and commercial preconstruction services may include acquiring the necessary permits, brainstorming architectural designs, planning crucial engineering components, and drafting blueprints, schematic visuals, and other construction documents. Preconstruction is arguably the most important phase of the entire building process and must be executed with meticulous attention to detail and thorough planning.
What is the design process of a commercial building?
The first step in commercial building design is site planning, which is the process of determining the size and layout of the site, parking requirements, and critical support structures. After site planning is complete, our engineers work alongside our architects to develop schematic designs that illustrate the appearance and scope of the project, including high-level design concepts and various elements such as electrical, drainage, and pedestrian circulation. This step of the building design process allows for collaboration until the client and contractor have derived a final building plan from the brainstorming and planning process.
