PHASE 1 Client Brief,
information Gathering
We work with you to define your needs and
objectives, considering the character,
image, space and other facts that effect how
you will use the garage.
Often a client will have an
idea of the location of the garage and
through our site analysis we find
alternatives that may better utilise space
and minimize cost.
PHASE 2 Design Stage
We develop a concept sketch with various
options if possible.
PHASE 3 Design Development
Technical details, plans, elevations and
sections through the garage are then
developed with a view to obtaining a
building permit.
If an easement is on the property, we check
if there are any pipes and normally obtain
approval to build over the easement.
Approval is obtained from the council and
the relevant sewerage and water authority.
Building over easements is a common practice
and clients should not consider this a
deterrent to gaining approval.
Construction documentation and working
drawings for your design are translated in
to the technical language of the contractor.
Working drawings and specifications detail
all of the materials to be used, where they
are to be located and how they are to be
installed. All requirements of the Building
Code of Australia and local council
regulations are adhered to.
PHASE 4 Coordination
Engineering computations are produced for
garage lintels, slab designs and retaining
walls etc.
We make all contact with the engineer, to
assist with any technical information that
may be required. Consulting with the client
as required.
PHASE 5 Final
We provide the building surveyor with all
the documentation necessary to obtain the
building permit. |
