Step 1 --- Our Schematic Design approach starts with your inquiry. If it appears our concepts can meet your needs, we schedule a preliminary site visit. This visit includes meetings and presentations to your team, walking the site, gathering photos/videos, measurements and whatever data you have that we can access: soil tests, GIS/elevation data, groundwater, flood crests, utility drawings, etc.
Step 2 --- We take all that information and carefully analyze it, have our Engineering team review it, and create a preliminary design concept with a rough estimate for your planning process. The more data we can obtain, the more accurate the estimates.
Step 3 — The Schematic Design is the third step in which all of the details are identified, the approval process and authorities are outlined. This step does not include final working blueprints/engineering drawings but is the “package” that can be presented to the appropriate agencies to get their initial approvals and comments suggestions that can then be worked into a final plan.
Step 4 — Final blueprints, working drawings and exact estimate s for EKO components, bids local sub-contractors for excavation, sheet piling, concrete work, welding, etc will then be worked into the final Schematic Design Document for your project.
