Analysis and evaluation
– Drawing up specifications
– Producing a bill of quantities for business-envelope components
– Analysing mechanical solutions to evaluate project quality
– Collaborating with the artistic team to come up with an architectural concept
– Simulating a project idea in 3D to evaluate the aesthetic effect
– Evaluating product applications using new technologies on buildings undergoing restoration work
Approval drawings
– Reconstructing a proposal outline study using Mesh and Wireframe 3D models;
– Producing plans, elevations and general sections set for creating 2D and 3D constructions of building-envelope components, with reference to the project grid line;
– Producing detailed mechanical drawings at 1:1 scale, suitable for compensating for construction tolerances agreed on in advance, accompanied by descriptions of the materials as per the specifications and sales documentation;
– Designing new custom curtain-wall systems: stick systems and unitised systems for single or double-skin façades, with checks on the condensation points, natural and forced air flows, and home automation systems;
– Carrying out static, thermal and acoustic checks and fire calculation of joints for new systems designed with an integrated report signed by a qualified technician;
– Supporting project coordination meetings.
Laboratory tests
– Designing visual mock-ups with imitation-material construction of structural forms;
– Designing performance mock-ups for air permeability, watertightness, wind-load resistance, thermal, acoustic and seismic lab testing;
– Providing support for certification testing with bodies authorised to issue CE certification.
Ordering materials
– Checking the bill of quantities as the project progresses;
– Producing bills of quantities for ordering and optimising materials for procurement and production.
Shop drawings
– Producing shop drawings in 2D (in .dwg and/or .pdf format) and 3D (machine files in .stp format) for each individual façade element or assembly;
– Producing installation instructions for the various façade elements and/or assemblies to be laid on concrete structures and/or the building’s structural work;
– Producing packing lists for packing materials in line with transportability limitations, the available warehouse space on site, the installation sequence and the production/laying WBS;
– Revising the project drawings for as-built status.
Optional services
– BIM: Building Information Modelling with the support of an expert operator for meetings with the BIM Coordinator of the overall project;
– Survey of the existing building condition and 3D data rendering;
– Document drafting for Method Statements.
