How?

There is a lot that goes into HOW the building is put together. It’s a loaded question. From technical aspect of the design and detailing to careful execution by the contractor.

How is about the Zoning Code and about the Building Code. How does the building fit on site and how do people exit in case of emergency.

How is about the materials and how they fit and work together. How they are supported and how they transition.

How is about engineering. How is the roof supported and where does the water drain. How is the building heated and cooled and where does the power come from. Where is the water heater located and how do we dispose of the sewer.

How is about the construction. Working with a contractor on how our drawings are interpreted and executed.

How is what makes a building a building.
