projekteret

Projekteret is a Danish term used in architecture, construction, and civil engineering to describe the stage of a project in which the design has been developed in sufficient detail to form the basis for tendering, procurement, and permit applications. It indicates that the drawings and specifications are established enough to guide construction and to enable binding decisions by clients, contractors, and authorities.

At the projekteret stage, the design is documented in detail. This typically includes architectural drawings, structural calculations, building services (such as HVAC, electrical, and plumbing), material specifications, dimensioning, tolerances, and energy performance requirements. The set of documents is often referred to as the projekteringsgrundlag or projekteringsmateriale and is prepared by the design team, usually comprising architects and engineers working in collaboration.

Relation to other phases is central to understanding projekteret. It follows earlier phases such as idé (concept) and forprojekt (preliminary design), and it precedes (or transitions into) detailed construction or execution phases. While the projekteret design is fixed enough to proceed, minor changes during construction are still possible, depending on contracts and site conditions.

Legally and administratively, the projekteret material is commonly required for building permit applications and for tendering to contractors. It provides the necessary specificity to demonstrate compliance with building codes, safety standards, and energy requirements.

In usage, projekteret distinguishes a fully developed design ready for formal procurement and permit processes from earlier, less detailed stages. It is a key milestone in Danish construction practice, signaling that the project design is ready for execution planning.
