The design stage is comprised
of collected assessment &
planning info. It then creates
documents which show what is
to be built
DESIGN TEAM
Administrator (Coordinates
meetings, keeps track of budget
and schedule)
Architect (Team Leader)
Construction Manager (Monitors
construction & contractors)

What to look for in a architect:
Experience in similar work
References
????WHAT ELSE????
Chapter 6
Costs: Architect= 8-12 % of construction budget
Construction manager= 5-10 %

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
 The design team needs to discuss the following topics:
1.
Site analysis critical: Consider impact to surrounding area.
Will it deliver the product?
2.
Structure: Conceptual design “mental picture”. Include size,
shape, area impact, square footage
3.
Materials: What the building made of; wood, steel, cement.
Make sure they support purpose of structure. Consider
sustainable products. Floor to ceiling plan. Elasticity of floor


Outdoor surfaces: Require materials such as sod, stone,
asphalt. Parks, trails, sport fields, open space.
Ensure playground equipment has adequate protective
surfacing under it to prevent injuries from falls.
Chapter 6


Plan for proper lighting and mechanical systems.
Aesthetics needs to be reviewed carefully. Strike a midle
ground between function and appearance.
Design Documents/Blueprints “ROAD MAP”
 Review carefully. Contractors “instruction book.”
 Blueprints come in several types; demolition, site, structural,
mechanical, electrical, landscape
 Following building codes/ordinances/standards critical. Keep
architect “on-board” through construction
 Architects & engineers responsible for blueprints
Blueprint review


Conceptual designs and blueprints will be

Chapter 7 Funding & The Bid
Process
Funding is a critical part of the design project
 Generate support & interest
Project Costs
1.
Hard Costs “Fixed”, part of the facility, permanent & relate to
construction. (material cost + labor) Cost per square foot
common. GSF and ASF. What are they? What is tear space??
Construction Mgmt: Have expertise to guide construction to
ensure it goes according to plan, safely
“FFE” Furniture, fixtures, and equipment
2.
Soft Costs; “Start-up costs” Contingencies(unexpected costs
10-20 % of construction cost) Architect fees, engineering,
consultants, permits, permits, permits!!
