The term construction design describes the phase of construction of a structure with the help of construction technology . The individual steps of construction are defined in the construction process and are organized with the help of construction management .

Time limit

The construction follows the construction process on the building design . It begins on the day of the first construction activity on the construction site . The "first groundbreaking " or the laying of the foundation stone is a symbolic beginning, which usually takes place after the actual start of construction.

The construction phase ends with the building acceptance of the building by the client or his construction management . Following this, the start of use of the building and the so called " warranty period ".

Due to the tight deadlines in the construction industry, there is often a large overlap between the construction phases. Construction planning is usually not yet completed when construction begins. The warranty phase can begin earlier for parts of the structure. For this purpose, interim acceptance tests are usually carried out.
