Detailed design is sometimes referred to as ‘developed design’ or ‘definition’. It is the process of taking on and developing the approved concept design. By the end of the detailed design process, the design should be dimensionally correct and co-ordinated, describing all the main components of the building and how they fit together. However, technical aspects of the design may require further development, design by specialists may not yet have been fully incorporated into the design and it will not have been packaged for tender.
