Finishes vs External Envelope

Hi Edniel



It depends on the specification but usually you need weathertight conditions for trades that may be damaged by water intrusion - such as listed by Jacob.



So it is not just the facade but the roof as well.



Once you have a clear working platform and a secure deck above - usually 2 floors - then items such as:



1. Internal masonry - may have to wait a bit until the facade is in place.

2. MEP Ducts - pipes - electric containment but NOT cables.

3. MEP in risers must have a secure walls and top cover.



Best regards

Dear All,



Thanks Jacob.



Could other PPers give me their contributions on the subject regardless in which country is the location of the project.



Thanks,



Edniel
