Design
In order to produce a high quality façade, CanBuild provides a design service as part of its overall supply packages. This specialist detailing integrates the design intent provided by the Architect; the structural requirements of the Engineer with the construction methodology deployed by the contractor.

This is an important element in the success of any facade.
To ensure that this detailing does not contradict the concepts developed by the client’s design team, CanBuild endeavour to get on-board early within the design process and work closely with the client, the Architect, the Engineer and/or contractor to provide the benefit of CanBuild’s experience in the development of the GRC facade works
An important part of this process is the construction of a series of samples, prototypes and mock ups to progressively develop the drawings into reality. This assists all parties to indentify problem areas, develop solutions, upgrade documentation and speed up the eventual construction process.
CanBuild undertake projects all over the world, designing to various statutory requirements and load conditions. To achieve this, CanBuild directly employ design engineers as well as deploying specialist façade consultants, to work on a wide variety of projects.
