Objectives of Class :
To acquire a working knowledge of the principal project phases. To identify activities associated with each phase of a construction project. To provide an understanding of the design and construction process and the roles of the different participants, and the types of documents produced during each phase

Major Project Phases

The major phases in the project cycle that are common to most design and construction projects are : Project Planning Design Schematic Design Design Development Contract Documents Construction Procurement (Bidding Phase) Construction Occupancy

Phase 1 :Project Planning

The planning stage of the project : During this phase of the project the owner makes decisions that set the tone for the project. All projects begin with an idea or a need During this stage the owner : selects the project site, and establishes a conceptual estimate, schedule. The most critical decision that is made during this project phase is to make a decision as to whether or not to proceed with 5 the project (called a go/no go decision).

Phase 2 :DESIGN PHASE

Design process involves: Schematic Design Talk to owner, rough sketches Design Development Major Systems & component selected Contract Documents Preliminary Cost estimate Develop Preliminary working drawings Develop working drawings with Specifications

CONTRACTS & SPECIFICATION( ARE 459)

Schematic Design
The A/E reviews and evaluates the owners program and budget requirements and discusses with the owner alternative approaches to the design and construction During schematic design, the A/E prepares conceptual design documents. These may include: Preliminary sketches ,Small scale schematic plans, elevations, sections, diagrams, renderings, and other graphic and written documents, General written description of project. The completion of the schematic design phase represents approximately 30 percent design completion for the project

CONTRACTS & SPECIFICATION( ARE 459)

Design Development
The design development phase takes the project from about 30 percent to approximately 60 percent design. It is the time when the design team will be evaluating and selecting all the major systems and components of the project. During this phase of the project the design team is involved in the evaluation and finalization of all the architectural components and project systems. The project's budget and schedule continue to be monitored and adjusted.
