Commercial construction is a complex industry that encompasses several disciplines that work hand in hand to create functional and aesthetically pleasing structures. The different disciplines of commercial construction involve skills and expertise that are required to deliver projects successfully. Some of the disciplines include Architecture, Engineering, Project Management, Construction Trades, and Interior Design. Organizing and Managing these different aspects can be pretty difficult to do on your own if you dont have the knowhow. This is why it is important to find the right professional to help you with your vision.
Architecture is the first discipline of commercial construction, and it involves the conceptualization and design of buildings. Architects combine art and science to create functional, safe, and aesthetically appealing buildings. They develop detailed blueprints that define the scale, function, and aesthetic appeal of the building. Architects also take into consideration the environmental impact of the building, accessibility, and the general health and safety of the occupants. We work and team up with the architect you already hired or have architects that we can bring in to Draw up your vision and make it an image.
Engineering is another discipline in commercial construction that involves the application of scientific, mathematical, and technological principles to design and maintain structures. Engineers ensure that the buildings meet the structural requirements by choosing the correct materials, calculating the loads on the building, and designing the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems that support the building. We also work with Licensed Structural, Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing engineers if these plans have not yet been provided.
Project Management is a vital element in commercial construction, ensuring that all the disciplines work together to deliver the project on time, within budget, and to the required quality standards. Our Project Managers oversee the project from the design stage through procurement, construction, and commissioning. They ensure that the project is executed according to the design and that all the materials and equipment are procured and installed.
Construction Trades are the team responsible for building the structure. They include Masonry, Carpentry, Plumbing, Electrical, and other trade skills that work together. Construction trade skills require specialized training and experience to get things like the foundation, structure, and all amenities like HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems connected correctly, in addition to any required finishes like resurfacing floors, painting, and other finishes. The Trades make a big difference in turning the design to a reality. Having the right teams together to make this happen is very important. We are careful who we work with in all areas because at the end of the day details are important. One overlooked mistake can make or break a budget or deadline. Our goal is to make sure that nothing is overlooked ensuring a smooth construction process.
Interior Design involves crafting functional and attractive spaces within the built structure. Interior design specialists ensure that each room, hallway, and lobby is done to perfection. They determine the color, material, and function of the interior space, ensuring that they are in line with the overall theme, functionality, and client’s expectations. We work with customers current interior designers or put together a solution with our team that meets the customers personality and design specifications. Image is important. Whether its the interior space of an office, restaurant theme, retail space, or a Strip mall; creating a look that is calm, warm, and inviting is a requirement to keep customers coming back or filling vacant spaces in your real estate.
Commercial construction is a complex industry that requires a diverse range of disciplines to complete projects. Architects, engineers, project managers, construction trade personnel and interior designers work together to ensure the design, construction and appearance of the finished product all meet the client’s expectations. Your projects success relies on executing each of these disciplines correctly, and a well-orchestrated team effort delivers exceptional value to commercial construction customers.
