STRUCTURE & PLANNING

Structural planning for a project is the creation and development of a plan for the construction of a project. It outlines the basic structure and is responsible for crucial functions listed below:

  1. Defines the tasks for all the entities involved
  2. Illustrates the relationship between different work teams
  3. Scheduling tasks and actions to be taken 
  4. Ensures that the plan meets specific guidelines.

These structural design documents can be presented in the form of drawings and calculations. Drawing is a medium used by engineers to explain the project’s design and requirements to the contractors and the clients.

Drawings can be in the form of a blueprint, map, rough sketch or layout, or a roadmap listing down the requirements for each structure. Calculations are done on the basis of dimensions and other figures to evaluate the strength, size, load, and layout of the design.
