TECHNICAL ASSIGNMENT #1
Updated 10/13/11

Technical Assignment #1 highlights the construction schedule, building systems, and project costs of the office building being studied.  Additionally, local conditions, unique building aspects and client needs are addressed to give the reader a complete understanding of the magnitude and driving forces of the project as a whole. 















TECHNICAL ASSIGNMENT #2

Technical Assignment #2 further develops the project schedule, exploring the trade and building sequencing methods utilized on the project.  A detailed structural system estimate, along with a detailed general conditions estimate, gives the reader a better idea of where some project costs were incurred.  LEED and Building Information Modeling analyses document the credits and manner in which the building will achieve LEED Gold, as well as the means and methods employed to provide accurate building models that were used for design development and MEP coordination efforts.







TECHNICAL ASSIGNMENT #3
Updated 12/19/11

Technical Assignment #3 explores not only the constructability issues that affected the project, but also the schedule accelerations that were used (or may be implemented in the future) to reduce the negative effects of schedule setbacks.  The value engineering applications that were explored and used on the project in order to reduce the owner's financial commitments.  This assignment also highlight the discussions that took place at the PACE Roundtable event, and the manner in which they can be applied to the technical analyses in the Spring semester.
