Construction specifications are an essential part of Contract Documentation. But does every project require a full separate Project Manual? What level of project documentation is appropriate for small or simple projects? Some project delivery methods allow speci cations to be shorter and still have the information required to describe and enforce project quality and design intent. Learn the basics, hints, trips, tricks and the key language for preparing professional short form project documentation and annotation.
Learning Objectives:
- Evaluate projects by complexity, type and delivery methods to determine if appropriate for reduced speci cations.
- Coordinate the information contained in Drawing and Speci cation, by breaking down a section.
- Type, placement and organization of Drawing Annotation.
- Reassembling the Section into drawing annotation.
