* Building design:

• A building design is the plan according to which a home or other building


is constructed. This includes both the interior and exterior of the structure.
• Building design refers to the broadly based architectural, engineering
and technical applications to the design of buildings.
• All building projects require the services of a building designer, typically
a licensed architect.
Building design
• Smaller, less complicated projects often do not require a licensed
professional, and the design of such projects is often undertaken by
building designers, draftspersons, interior designers (for interior fit-outs or
renovations), or contractors.
• Larger, more complex building projects require the services of many
professionals trained in specialist disciplines, usually coordinated by an
architect.
Construction design sequence
• 1. architectural planning tasks • 7. get specifications
• 2. development of drawing • 8. drawing construction
assignments • 9. make an outline drawing
• 3. drawing contract • 10. budgeting
• 4. background image research • 11. control of the General
• 5. approval of prototype drawings Directorate of Emergencies
• 6. conduct geological research • 12. probability
Modern building design
• Climate change,
technology and
regulation are
changing modern
building design, and
the professional
practices of the
architecture,
engineering and
