Introduction:
The Built environment is the human-made construction with proper management and
activities. Create a report on the information of construction including, drawing, detailing and
specification, in the role of an employer of a medium-sized construction organization. The
major responsibilities are to create a site plan, floor plan, elevations, window and doors
selection and many more.
Prepare a design of conceptual and report on the implementation of construction of an office
building with some points in different phases. The first phase of the report includes the
evaluation of different kinds of construction information with different context and compare
them. The development of the construction drawing with details and schedules are part of the
report with complete arrangements and work schedule. Explain the construction project with
the set of the construction drawing and the professional collaboration of production are the
part of the report.

LO1: Evaluate different types of construction information
P1: Explain the use of construction information in the context of a given project
The regulations of 2015 construction with design and management refers that the pre-
information of the construction is required from the client for the previous appointment.
Compile the pre-construction information with the help and advice of designers and provide
it to the contractors and designers. The basic construction information includes some points
like project planning, health and safety hazards and management & with hazards of design
and construction.
The pre-construction should be clear and easy to understand with the clients and project
designers. It includes the project progress and pre-information of the project. The 2007
regulations approved a code of practice suggest some important points for a contraction
project that are required to include in it as, the description of the project, dates of the project
phases, contact details of the project team members, the location of the project and project
arrangements (designingbuildings, 2019).
P2: Describe the different types of construction information
The construction information includes different kinds with pre-construction information and
during or after the construction information. The pre-construction information includes the
basic information regarding the project like,
 Define the project details with the team members and general information of the
project
 The planning of the project with proper management is the type of project information
that is possible with the complete knowledge of the project.
 The project information related to health hazards and related to safety hazards.
Some other information of the project is like,
 Steel frame structure
 Concrete frame construction
 Light gauge steel structures
 Wood frame construction (understandconstruction, 2019)

M1: Compare different types of construction information
The construction has different types as define above like,
 Steel frame structure: it is a flexible and strong material that is ideal for the
earthquake.
 Concrete frame construction: the common type of construction system that used
bricks, glass, metals with steel and aluminum.
 Light gauge steel structures: this technique is similar to the wood constriction that
used in Europe and the US.
 Wood frame construction: the starting techniques of the construction and used in
Europe and North America.

LO2: Develop construction drawing, details, schedules and specifications
P3: Prepare a set of general arrangement drawings & selected details:
