Especially number of floors and maximum building height affects a building permit. Domes in 56 m² – 109 m² are to be considered being no less than 1,5 and 2 floor houses.
1. Proposal for the interior design.
Upon request on building an Easy Domes domehouse, a proposal is made for the interior design. The process of interior designing is a back and forth work process between builder and KT- Architects. In this process there is also a focus on choise of materials, installations i.a., and builder is given advise on sustainable solutions.
Building cost is calculated carefully, a budget is made together with a project report with an overview on building materials and construction parts. With these calculations and with drawings for terrain, soil, sewerage and water, it is possible to apply for a building permit, and also funding/construction finance at a bank.
When decided to complete the planned project, a contract proposal is sent to builder. This heighlights in details the contents of delivery – everything from prefabricated parts, project contents including the building permit, energy calculations, trade contracts, supply materials, time of delivery, terms of payment, warranty inspection, liability and legal rules etc. The contract is signed when builder has obtained the building permit, and when an order is made on dome(s), windows etc.
2. Building permit, contract and drawings
When decided to fulfill the project, building permit is obtained and the contract is signed, all drawings are made for contractors and craftsmen. With an overview on materials and work reports for carpentry, soil and concrete work, plumbing, and other contractors, builder can collect offers / apply for tender at fixed prices by various contractors or from a total-contractor.
If builder is planning a DIY project, it must be noted, that responsibility lies entirely on builder, and no advisor warranty or liability guarantees can be granted
3. Advise and guidance
When a dome is to be assembled and mounted onto foundation, a representative from KT-Architects will be at the building site offering advise and guidance, also regarding further mounting of windows and flashings, and how to carry on outside work.
4. Work indoors
When the house is sealed and finished outside, work continues indoors, with building of walls, insulation, floors, ceiling etc. Other workers, as electricians, joiners, masons i.a., also need to do their part of the project. The building owner shall contact a local building advicer to assist in coordinating work- and time plan as to follow-up with inspection on works carried out.
