Preconstruction Design Programme and Documentation: Gateway-2
This case study provides a detailed overview of the preconstruction design process, focusing on the preparation timeline and the types of documentation required for a Gateway 2 submission. It includes a comprehensive programme of design works and offers regularly updated examples of the necessary design documentation. For additional context, please consult other case studies, which provide specific examples of drawings and reports tailored to various types of facades.
For samples of detailed drawings, including condensation risk analysis, thermal analysis, and movement and tolerance diagrams, please explore other case studies available on the Facade Intelligence platform. Examples of reports, such as structural calculations, glass risk assessments, access strategies for construction and maintenance, and other relevant documentation, are regularly updated to reflect the latest industry practices and standards.
Members are encouraged to request that the Institute for Architectural Science and Technology (IAST) prioritise the development and release of specific examples of reports they require for their professional work. Additionally, we highly value your feedback and suggestions. To share your input or submit a request, please contact us at info@iast.uk.
Draft versions of documentation currently in development but not yet published on the Facade Intelligence platform can be made available upon request to members of the Institute for Architectural Science and Technology on an individual basis. This ensures early access to valuable resources tailored to your needs, supporting your ongoing professional development and project requirements.
