Design Development
This process will include project-specific advice on basic cladding-design options, performance criteria, and the many technical, scheduling, and cost constraints that should be understood and defined during this phase:
- Design Constraints and Performance Criteria
- Materials Research and Evaluation
- Budget Review
- Development of Design Options
- Sketch Detailing
- Preliminary Façade, Glass, and Climate Engineering
- Outline Specifications
- LEED Criteria Support
- Climate Analysis
- Energy and Thermal Modeling
- Complex Geometry Modeling and Analysis
- New Material Development and Testing
- Daylighting Analysis and Modeling
- Acoustic Analysis and Design
