Construction Documents

Construction documents are the branch of architectural design and a vital field of the architectural process. We must not mistake the construction documents as a schematic design, wherein it involves sketching, model making, and so on. They provide guidance and instructions to the contractor or the subcontractor and they will study the architect’s building design, question the design professionals if needed, create a project manual and schedule for the successful construction of the proposed structure. Construction documentation acquires the detailed building permits and the design-build is initiated.
