Dans la première partie de cet article, nous avons présenté les considérations générales qui influencent la structuration des fiches espaces, aussi appelées fiches locaux dans certains contextes. Dans cette deuxième partie, nous examinons plus en détail les types d’informations spécifiques qui peuvent y être inclus.
Les fiches espaces, aussi appelées fiches locaux dans certains contextes, sont l’un des outils les plus utilisés pour communiquer les exigences dans les projets de bâtiment. Elles aident les maîtres d’ouvrage et les équipes de conception à discuter, définir et vérifier les qualités requises des espaces au sein d’un bâtiment.
Tender procedures in AEC projects can be heavy: piles of documents, strict rules, and big stakes for everyone involved. For commissioning clients, one of the key challenges is communicating project requirements clearly. What needs to be achieved? What are the technical and functional requirements? What...
In AEC projects, risk management and requirements management are typically treated as separate disciplines. Different teams, different tools, different workflows. But in practice, these two domains are deeply connected — and integrating them can lead to better outcomes for complex projects. When analysing design briefs for...
Ever heard of the scope creep? It’s a creature that lurks in the shadows of any project and tends to emerge when things are already in full swing. It has multiple heads. Each of them uncontrollably spitting out new wishes, ambitions, and requirements—wreaking havoc on...
When you hear the term BIM (Building Information Modelling), it’s often linked to sophisticated 3D models, typically created by design teams. But BIM doesn’t have to begin with architects and engineers. In fact, it should start much earlier—right at the very beginning of a project—with...
For buildings, project briefs tend to focus on spaces: what kind of spaces should the new or renovated building feature? The requirements for these spaces are usually captured in tabular overviews that are referred to as ‘room data sheets’ (RDS). In this article, we will...
Every project brief is different because every project comes with its own particularities due to the chosen site, the available budget, and the specific needs of the project’s stakeholders. Yet, project briefs are also incredibly similar in terms of their structure and content. This offers...
A project brief is essentially a means of communication. Its key purpose is to communicate the client's needs and ambitions to the parties who will design, engineer and build the facility. As such, the client should give careful consideration to how requirements are worded and...
