  35. Dulles Pedestrian Walkback Tunnel, Finishes Package Washington Dulles International Airport Introduction Project Background Soil Retention System Curtain Wall System Airport Project Delivery Conclusions Commonalities to other Airport Projects • Data Collection • Survey • Sent to airports across the country • Gathering information from multiple airport projects • Results • Four International Airports: • Washington Dulles International Airport • Baltimore Washington International Airport • Miami International Airport • Seattle-Tacoma International Airport Pete Dahl Construction Management Senior Thesis, Spring 2004 Penn State University

  36. Dulles Pedestrian Walkback Tunnel, Finishes Package Washington Dulles International Airport Introduction Project Background Soil Retention System Curtain Wall System Airport Project Delivery Conclusions Commonalities to other Airport Projects Key questions: How was the project awarded? How was the project funded? What type of contract was used? What were the effects of phasing or packaging on the project? Additional questions alluded to the relationship developed between project team members -Corresponds to the number of change orders, schedule extensions and general communication Pete Dahl Construction Management Senior Thesis, Spring 2004 Penn State University

  37. Dulles Pedestrian Walkback Tunnel, Finishes Package Washington Dulles International Airport Introduction Project Background Soil Retention System Curtain Wall System Airport Project Delivery Conclusions Commonalities to other Airport Projects Respondents: Primarily contractors, an architect • Common Responses: • Use a contractor selection method based on Best Value • Low Bid is insufficient • Funding source not a barrier – eg. BWI • Use a lump sum contract • If quantities are unknown, use Unit Price – eg. Excavation Pete Dahl Construction Management Senior Thesis, Spring 2004 Penn State University

  38. Dulles Pedestrian Walkback Tunnel, Finishes Package Washington Dulles International Airport Introduction Project Background Soil Retention System Curtain Wall System Airport Project Delivery Conclusions Commonalities to other Airport Projects • Responses cont.: • Packaging common throughout the Airport market sector • Due to increased communication between packages • As a result…significant cost growth • Phasing less common • Less cost growth seen, as on BWI (NO cost growth) • Better relationship between Owner’s Rep and GC Pete Dahl Construction Management Senior Thesis, Spring 2004 Penn State University

  39. Dulles Pedestrian Walkback Tunnel, Finishes Package Washington Dulles International Airport Introduction Project Background Soil Retention System Curtain Wall System Airport Project Delivery Conclusions Analysis A change is needed… • The first steps: • Owner decisions related to Project Delivery have the ability to create, or relieve, tensions in the project team • How does an owner know if a decision will negatively impact their project? • More owners must be educated to understand impacts of their decisions Pete Dahl Construction Management Senior Thesis, Spring 2004 Penn State University

  45. Dulles Pedestrian Walkback Tunnel, Finishes Package Washington Dulles International Airport Introduction Project Background Soil Retention System Curtain Wall System Airport Project Delivery Conclusions QUESTIONS? Pete Dahl Construction Management Senior Thesis, Spring 2004 Penn State University

  46. Dulles Pedestrian Walkback Tunnel, Finishes Package Washington Dulles International Airport Introduction Project Background Soil Retention System Curtain Wall System Airport Project Delivery Conclusions Impacts Cost Costs can be justified through the savings of time from the duration of the excavation, and also the redesign of formwork for the concrete foundation walls. Old: SRS original cost: approx. $700,000 Change Orders: nearly $700,000 -DOUBLES the original cost of the system -Due to Flooding and Earth Movement New: 20,000 SF @ $10/SF = $200,000 for trench and slurry 2000 CY concrete, 1500 tons of rebar = $250,000 Rock Grinding: $400,000 (unchanged) Excavation: $500,000 (unchanged) Pete Dahl Construction Management Senior Thesis, Spring 2004 Penn State University

  47. Dulles Pedestrian Walkback Tunnel, Finishes Package Washington Dulles International Airport Introduction Project Background Soil Retention System Curtain Wall System Airport Project Delivery Conclusions Impacts Schedule Old: 8 month duration  7 lifts ~ 1 month per lift New: 3 weeks added at the front end of the project for slurry wall -Mobilization: 1 week -100 lf/day @ 400 lf = 4 days ~ 1 week -Demobilization: 1 week Better flow of work due to decreased activities on site -2 rock grinders: 2 days -Full use of loader and excavator -Tiebacks installed in 2 days 3-4 days per lift = 5-6 weeks total!
