ABSTRACT
Technical Design is structured to provide every opportunity for all of the technical and coordination aspects of the design and the integration of specialist subcontractors’ design work to be concluded prior to the start on site, reducing site issues and minimising the impact on the Construction Programme and overall Project Programme. The Technical Design information, in addition to enabling the remaining coordination and integration exercises, will ultimately inform the construction of the project. It will comprise the complete design of every part and component, providing clear and concise information in support of the Construction Programme. The lead designer will coordinate and integrate the Technical Design. The design team should also regularly review the coordinated Technical Design information to ensure it is aligned with the Construction Strategy and other Project Strategies. The Technical Design information will typically comprise: location drawings, assembly drawings, component drawings, specifications and schedules.
