Principal Designer

A Principal Designer is a key professional responsible for managing safety and coordination during the planning and design stages of a construction project. Their primary role is to ensure that risks to everyone involved, including future workers and occupants, are identified and minimized early on. They work closely with other designers and the client to develop safe, compliant plans, and they oversee information sharing throughout the project. Essentially, the Principal Designer acts as a leader to make sure that safety considerations are integrated into the project from the beginning, facilitating a smooth and secure workflow.
