Helping you build your dream

About Us

DBA has experience in the areas of conception, planning and tender stages of projects accompanied by the ability or aspiration to deliver projects through construction.

All projects are designed closely with members of the design and construction team to ensure the clients brief is met. Our approach has always been to put people first – our clients, communities, end users and all stakeholders involved in the development process.

Commercial & Residential Architectural Services

Our commitment to sustainability and investment in research and development drives the practice’s design approach. The services encompass a full spectrum of architectural consultancy services and disciplines.

Our experienced professional team provide overall planning and coordination of a project from inception to completion. Irrespective of the scale or type of project. All our projects are prepared in BIM format for better coordination with Building Consultants.

We are frequently appointed, especially on large projects, as combined architectural and project construction consultant, where we undertake project coordination between the disciplines of civil, structural, mechanical and electrical engineering. As a result, the project benefits from more efficient and better-coordinated phases of design documentation and construction.

DBA has extensive project management capabilities to oversee the overall coordination and execution of the BIM process.

Building Information Modeling (BIM)

We go through an initial evaluation to define our end goals and possible issues that enable us to develop a BIM Execution Plan (BEP) which determines specific tasks and deliverables at every stage of the project.

BIM facilitates the project delivery process as it provides a unified platform that can be utilised and managed by specialists from various disciplines. We bring together the whole project team through our BIM Coordination Services, regularly initiating and organising meetings to ensure that key project stakeholders are up to speed on progress and challenges. In addition, we consolidate all mission-critical data, which include models and documents, for reference filing and easy accessibility.

DBA is using Autodesk Revit 2020 for modelling and Autodesk Navisworks for clash coordination.
