April 2016 Meeting
Meeting Date: April 13, 2016
Meeting Time: 12:00pm EDT

Webinar ID: 158-431-323
Speaker: Vivian Volz, AIA, CSI, SCIP, CCS, LEED AP BD+C
Most of us learned to specify using templates or examples developed for Design-Bid-Build project delivery. This program explores how those specifications should change when applied to other delivery types. Changes to Division 01 are required for any delivery type, even for Design-Negotiate-Build projects. Specifying for performance comes into play with Delegated Design subcontracts and Design-Build projects. We’ll touch on Design Assist and Integrated Project Delivery, as well.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify specification techniques and language developed for Design-Bid-Build work that may change in other delivery types.
- Understand how parties to the construction contract are addressed differently and have different specification goals in different delivery types.
- Examine and adjust Division 01 to support the selected delivery type.
- Specify performance requirements for Design-Build and Delegated Design work, using design criteria, design substantiation, and quality assurance and control measures.
Learning Units will be provided: Yes (AIA 1LU)
