The Main Design is the second phase in the development of a specific project<\/p>\n

(architecture, interior, or exterior) that further technically develops the Conceptual Design<\/a> in terms of structural stability, installations, and construction materials.<\/p>\n

The Main Design is a very important step that establishes the entire system of functioning and construction for a specific project, through which technical characteristics and quantities are stated, and more detailed spatial relationships are set.<\/p>\n

Take a look at an example of a Main Design in practice: RAMPADA<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Through the Main Design, the design solution (site plan, floor plans, sections, elevations, technical descriptions) is explained to the investor and contractor by means of graphic representations and text descriptions, and quantities are stated through bills of quantities, on the basis of which offers are collected and works are contracted.<\/p>\n

The architectural designs are also linked to associate designs and bills of quantities, where needed for the given task (Structural resistance and stability calculation, Electrical engineering design, Mechanical design for water supply and drainage, Mechanical design for HVAC and pool technology, Rational energy use and thermal protection study, Vertical transport design, Irrigation plan, etc.)<\/p>\n
