What are bygghandling/building documents?
So what is a building deed? Construction documents are all the documents, drawings and documents produced during a project. There are drawings of the planned building that describe how the building should be designed. The documents include information on, for example, material selection, measurements, quantity as well as method and execution descriptions.
The construction documents are carried out by designers in dialogue with the client or contractor. They are the actions that the entrepreneur builds on. Detailed solutions for how requirements, needs and wishes are to be fulfilled are presented here. The more detailed, technical and accurate the construction documents are, the easier it is for the contractor to build according to them. The construction documents usually form an essential part of the request documentation in the procurement of contractors and suppliers.
What is the difference between system deed and building deed?
System documents define and describe the objectives and requirements for a construction project and include coordinated drawings from consultants. This gives an overall picture of the planned construction project.
It could be said that system documents focus on the overall technical solutions and principles, while construction documents are detailed and contain in-depth instructions on how the building itself is to be constructed.
What does a building document contain?
The construction documents specify in detail which materials and products have been chosen, and all details are measured. Execution, properties and quality are also described in detail, which is not necessarily evident in a building permit drawing .
Why are building documents needed?
The building documents have four functions:
Documentation of the construction process is essential and the construction documents can either be detailed and specific or provide some flexibility for the designer.
The construction documents also form the basis for the contractor's price. By providing request documentation, where the construction documents form an essential part, different contractors can be compared and the best solution chosen. A more detailed design solution usually tends to generate a more accurate price, although not necessarily the lowest price.
The construction documents serve as a description for the contractor of what is to be done and how it is to be carried out. It is the contractor who carries out the construction.
These documents also serve as a basis for the inspection, which gives the client the opportunity to check that the contractor has carried out the work according to the agreed specifications.
The building document forms the basis of the contract
The building document is the basis for the actual contract between you as the client and the building contractor. It specifies what must be done in order for the building to meet your wishes. When reviewing the construction document, it becomes clear whether the construction contractor has fulfilled the commitments that were promised. In addition, the document is the governing document in the implementation of the inspection of the project.
How do you produce construction documents?
When the construction documents are ready, the building permit process is completed and the building permit granted, you have a rough sketch of the construction you want to carry out. Now is the time to ensure that the building project turns out exactly as you wish. During this stage, all specific choices such as details, materials and dimensions come into play, regardless of whether it concerns remodeling, extension or new construction.
