Technical Design & Building Regulations
Technical design and Building Regulations information
We provide standalone technical drawings and supporting information for different construction methods. Most of our experience is with low-energy buildings, but we also detail conventional construction.
The package covers the information needed to check, price and build the design. Structural engineering reports and calculations are commissioned separately.
- SIP and timber-frame construction
- Brick-and-block construction
- Wall, roof and floor build-ups
- Junctions and thermal-bridge details
- Airtightness and insulation details
- Ventilation, heating and service coordination
- Structural coordination
- Fire, moisture and acoustic considerations
- Building Regulations drawings and specifications
- Construction details for pricing and site use
