Project: TAB QLD, Albion

Project Description:

The Client wanted to refurbish the interior lift cars.  We had just completed the design of both Ground & First Floor Lobby’s and about to commence refurbishment of Levels 1 – 8. The lift interior was to tie in with all levels and had to comply with new disabled access codes in the BCA.

Ambition:
  • To communicate clearly to the client and see for ourselves how the design would look from inside and outside the lift.
  • To get full satisfaction from the client before proceeding with the working drawings.
  • To portray the level of quality we wanted to achieve to the contractors. 
Solution:
  • To computer generate digital 3d perspectives of our design to give a clear visual understanding to the client and consultants.
  • To convert the perspectives into 3d working drawings so that both sets of documents could be easily translated and assist in accurate tender prices. 
Outcome:

When the project went out for tender, builders were able to accurately price from both a visual and documentation point of view. The communication between trades, client, designer & builder was more precise and less ambiguous.  The project is yet to go under construction and it will be interesting to see the outcome and how this type of documentation can assist in future projects.
