With the award of the contract, we check the contractual framework conditions as the basis for the implementation. If necessary, we adapt the technical solutions to any requirements that have changed – always with the goals of our client in mind.

• Contract review, determination of the contracted services and if necessary, developing alternative solutions

Priedemann stands for system and facade concepts that think ahead with detailed solutions and technical feasibility even before the contract is awarded, always keeping an eye on the project as a whole and maintaining the project’s design standards even after the contract has been awarded.

• Development of the constructional facade concept on the basis of an integrated procedure together with the developer’s design team

Depending on requirements, Priedemann analyzes and calculates the static requirements of e.g. profiles, glazing and fixings in 2 or 3 dimensions or as finite elements. Evidence is provided on the basis of the applicable international or national standards.

• 2D construction analysis and detailed 3D analysis as needed

If Priedemann takes over the shop drawings or the workshop planning for the contractor of a facade project, we first check the existing planning approval for completeness and feasibility. In discussion with the developer and his planning team, we coordinate all planning-relevant parameters and adapt them, if necessary, to the equipment of the contractor – our client.

• Assessment of the planning approval (IFC Drawings) for completeness and feasibility

In addition to careful planning, the quality of the products and materials used is decisive for how well a facade performs and how long it lasts. Our knowledge is guaranteed and supported by our experience and application-oriented research in the Facade Lab. The exact definition of the materials to be used, their quality criteria and how they should be processed is part of our range of services.

• Preparation of the orders for all necessary materials
• Checking the technical data submitted for the materials
• Comparison of the materials proposed by the contractor with the specified materials
• Development of project-specific quality criteria, e.g. for facade profiles

Priedemann supplies all planning documents for the construction of the planned facades. We familiarize ourselves with the potential of the respective production site and capacities and monitor the entire manufacturing process right through to the supply of materials on the construction site. The CAD and CAM data generated by us makes our clients ready for industry 4.0: This is how we bring the design directly to the machine!

• Preparation and provision of construction drawings (Working Drawings)
• Compilation of all documents from the shop drawings with the production drawings and installation drawings, the static and structural-physical calculations right through to the material lists

The quality assured during manufacture and production is to be maintained continuously on the construction site. To do this, we coordinate the correct sequence for an efficient assembly process. Priedemann thinks through all steps and interfaces, creates clear installation and assembly instructions and pays attention to interfaces with other trades.

• Specification of the assembly and logistics sequence
