Planning vs. Construction
Project Planning Package
The Project Planning Package is designed for the early stages of a project, when you are evaluating the design, developing costs, coordinating the project, and deciding how you want to proceed.
It is useful for:
- Evaluating whether the design is right for your project
- Developing preliminary pricing and budgets
- Working with builders, contractors, architects, or engineers
- Coordinating the design with your site
- Working through permitting or approval requirements
- Deciding whether to move forward with construction
Project Construction Package
The Project Construction Package is designed for customers who are ready to move from planning to fabrication and construction.
It provides detailed timber-frame documentation needed to fabricate and assemble the frame, including construction drawings, timber member information, joinery details, and shop drawing information.
It is useful for:
- Fabricating the timber frame
- Preparing timbers for layout and cutting
- Understanding individual members and their connections
- Planning frame assembly
- Providing detailed information to builders and timber framers
In Simple Terms
Planning = Understand, price, coordinate, and prepare.
Construction = Fabricate and build.
