Basic Design

Design documentation of complex energy units at Basic Design (BD) level for projects to be realized in the Czech Republic
and abroad. The Basic Design level is fundamental for coordination of construction as a whole. It is usually elaborated from
the design input data provided by the main equipment suppliers. In more simplified form, Basic Design can be elaborated
without suppliers’ design input data.

Basic Design serves as the basis for:

• Specification for elaboration of profession documentation – Detail Design
• Coordination of profession Detail Design, sub-suppliers of technical units (mutual and with construction)
• Management of possible changes of Basic Design (e.g. those caused by selection of suppliers)
• Author supervision on the determined conception
• Specification for selection of auxiliary (“balance of plant”) equipment suppliers

Basic Design defines:

• Basic technical conception of the project
• The scope of supply in relationship to specific conditions of the project
• Technical and qualitative requirements on equipment

Design activities

Elaboration of Basic Design, i.e. definition of the basic conception and ensuring of coordination of the construction technical
solution in all professions.
BD is compiled in structuring into functional technological units or possibly into process systems (PS) and detailed process
systems (DPS), as well as civil structures/buildings. The scope and detail of Basic Design elaboration is adapted to the
conditions of given project and to the purpose of the documentation use.
