Site Surveys and Feasibility Studies
Site Surveys: Site surveys are a crucial architectural service that involves detailed inspections of a site to collect data on its physical characteristics, boundaries, topography, and existing structures. This information helps architects and designers understand site conditions, constraints, and opportunities, ensuring that the design aligns with environmental and regulatory requirements.
​
Feasibility Studies: Feasibility studies assess the practicality of a proposed project by analyzing site conditions, planning regulations, financial viability, and design options. They help determine whether a project is achievable within budget, time, and legal constraints, guiding decision-makers on whether to proceed with development.
Planning and Building Control Applications
Planning and Building Control Applications are key architectural services that ensure construction projects comply with legal and regulatory standards. The Planning Application involves submitting detailed proposals, including site plans and design drawings, to local authorities to obtain permission for new builds or modifications. It ensures the project aligns with zoning laws, environmental regulations, and community guidelines. Building Control Applications focus on ensuring the technical aspects of the construction, such as structural integrity, fire safety, and accessibility, meet building regulations. Together, these services ensure that projects are legally compliant and structurally sound.
Technical Design and Contract Management
Technical Design and Contract Management are essential architectural services that guide a project from detailed design to completion. Technical Design involves developing precise construction drawings, specifications, and material selections, ensuring that every element of the design is technically feasible and adheres to regulations. It provides the blueprint for construction teams to follow. Contract Management oversees the project’s execution, managing relationships between clients, contractors, and suppliers. This service ensures that the construction process stays on schedule, within budget, and meets the required quality standards while addressing any issues that arise during the build.
