Why Design Coordination is an integral part of modern-day construction
Reading Time: 3 minutesInaccurate design coordination in the preconstruction stage can lead to rework, delays, and cost overruns. Inability to resolve interferences between various trades viz. Architecture, Structure, and MEPF equipment lead to onsite clashes. Coordination issues arise when the Architectural and structural layout and MEPF components do not align with each other. Design coordination is an essential
Top 5 construction project issues and how to solve them.
Reading Time: 4 minutesThe modern construction industry is fast-paced and complex. Nevertheless, it demands general contractors, specialty contractors, and project managers to run the site smoothly, within budget & time, and under safety conditions.
