Development Process

Planning• Various requirement, factor affect the general

layout and dimensions of the structure

• Calculate the loads

• Type of structure that suitable for buildings

• Structural and constructional requirements and limitations

Design• Different solution in the planning stage

• The most suitable dimensions, proportion and details of the structural elements

• Position of columns and beams

• Arrangement of connection structure

Construction

• Mobilization of personnel

• Procurement of materials and equipment

• Redesign for unpredicted difficulties occur

• Advising construction
