Designing Buildings is the construction wiki. The only industry-wide, cross-discipline forum for finding and sharing knowledge about the planning, design, construction and operation of built assets.

---

It is the most popular construction industry website in the UK.

Designing Buildings is a free, open access site. Anyone can create articles about subjects they know and anyone can find articles about subjects they don’t.

It is supported by ICE, CIOB, BSRIA, IHBC, CIAT and ECA.

Write an article

You can write about any subject related to the construction industry, including research, publications, organisations, theories, news, products and practices. All we ask is that articles are factual (not adverts) and are encyclopaedic in style (not blog posts).

Sharing your knowledge is great for the industry, and it is also a great for you. You can add your profile to articles you write, so when people read about your subject they also find out about you.

To create an article:

Log in or register. Click the orange ‘Create an article’ button. Enter the name of your article. Write your article.
