UNIT II SCHEMATIC DESIGN INTEGRATING ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN

WITH
STRUCTURAL AND SERVICE CONSIDERATIONS 18
Evolving a conceptual design project into schematic design, balancing
different technical considerations. Considerations to include
appropriate structural, plumbing, electrical, mechanical and HVAC
systems. Working out schemes to decide and finalise on the best
possible design that integrates everything together. Scale of the
project could be small to medium and include any typology, involving
a newly created, quick, simple design or an older design from previous
academic years.
