Project Objectives and Brief

At Priedemann any project starts with the determination of the planning basis, with the facts, requirements and possibilities – no matter when we start and always together with everyone involved in the project

What is the design concept?
Which local standards apply?
Urban planning requirements?

Energy requirements?
Weighing up the priorities in the “magic triangle” of quality, costs and duration
Definition of an objective as a benchmark for all subsequent planning phases
Development of the evaluation criteria as expert assessors in architectural competitions

Project Objectives and Brief

Detailed/Developed Design

Priedemann develops the facade concept for planning ready for approval – taking into account all planning principles and requirements determined up to that point, e.g. the climate plan, building technology and building statics.

Detailed hand-drawn sketches
CAD-based layout plans and CAD-guided details
3-dimensional analysis of the shell of the building for complex facades
Selection of the materials and type of facade
Drafting of the facade plan on the basis of the building physics and acoustic specifications

Integration of fire safety and smoke extraction plans
Security requirements are taken into consideration
Collaboration on the overall design so that it can be approved
Joint design, joint width and depth in accordance with the building movements identified and relevant tolerances
Documentation in report form
Ongoing updating and further development of the design, cost estimate and construction scheduling
Support in the planning and implementation of 1:1 facade samples to ensure that the design is progressing as intended, e.g. in design-and-build processes

Compilation of the design and additional technical criteria in coordination with the planning team
Drafting of the service description
Individual quantities and components are recorded
Differentiation of the various trades when awarding contracts to different contractors, clear definition of the interfaces
Collation of all documents in a single set of documentation
