All questions are essay questions and should have about a paragraph long answer . Questions 1) - Green construction ( LEED , sustainability , leaving the environment as it was or better ) ● Imagine you are the general contractor on a LEED gold (hopefully!) project. You notice that as the windows are being installed , they are not completed sealed. That is air is getting in form the outside and leaking out from the building . why do you think that this is an issue , from a sustainability perspective , an ethical perspective , and a constructability perspective ? 2) - Construction project and players ( Designers , owners , contractors , subcontractors ). ● List , and describe the responsibilities of , at least Five players on building constructions project . ? 3) - Project Stages ( preliminary design , build , operate ) ● Typically , designers (and , for certain project delivery systems , builders) Collaborate with an owner during the design phase to understand what is required in the project . Is there value in including operators or users of the final project in the earliest phases of the project ? For example, when taking on a restaurant project (i.e., you are building a new restaurant space) . would there be value in including chefs and patrons in the design process ? How about the construction process? Why or why not ? Hint : To receive full credit , you should mention the project phases by name ! 4) - Project Delivery (Design/bid/build, Design/Build, CMAR, Integrated project delivery) ● You are constructing a commercial building that is 100,000 square feet and four stories tall. The building will be used for office space , with quick services restaurants (e.g., Chipotle) on the first floor. Compare two delivery methods ( name them!) , and provide justification for which is better. 5) - programing and Design ( Content covered at Architekton , marketing , space use planning ) ● Describe , in two sentences , each of the phases of design and provide an example for project. Fill in the Following table to do so. Phase Description Example 6) - Estimating Fundamentals ( Bidding , Materials , Labor , Equipment , profit ) ● You are working as a part of design-build project team, serving as an estimator for general contractor. As such, it is your job to collect bids form various trade contractors that you will eventually select to perform construction. When you call around for pricing on the mechanical contract, you notice that all trade contractors are within 5% of one another , with the exception of one contractor, whose price 15% lower than the other. You note that this mechanical trade contractor just opened for business last year. Do you use their price, given that it is lower, in your estimate for the job, or not ? In your response , suggest at least three potential reasons that their price may be lower and use these to justify your position of including their price, or not , within your estimate for the job. 7) - Creating Estimates ( Knowing what the owner wants , direct & indirect costs , documents that describe material quantities , material Vs. labor. Vs indirect costs ) ● Why do you need to have some knowledge of the construction process to generate a reliable estimate ? Given that , how early in a project do you think that an estimate can be developed that is within 5% of the actual costs of construction ( assuming that you do not run into unforeseen site conditions , or Acts of God).
