Construction Issues Picture Schedule Analysis C • Project Duration – 9 months • Resource allocation considered • Snow season- December 15th to February 15th • Steel procurement lead time
Construction Issues Picture Cost Estimate C Total Project Cost = $5.29 M (3.38 M in 2001)
Construction Issues Picture Cost Analysis C EIFS vs Concrete Panels:
Construction Issues Picture MEP Issues C • Concerns • Head Room – Floor to floor heights? • Location of MEP room • Choice of a centralized vs distributed system
Construction Issues Picture MEP Design C • Cores used for risers with diameter of 24” • Distribution at center brings used air down • Fresh air distributed through the lateral cores. • Duct sizes • typical rooms 14” • auditorium 18”
Construction Issues Picture Floor Systems Comparison C • Raised Floor System – Benefits and Disadvantages • Improved efficiency • More effective • Allows great deal of flexibility • 1.25 times cost of conventional system

Conclusion AE C Working together, we were able to design a building that: • Closely meets the program requirements • Functions well as a learning facility • Responds to the site • Has a fairly low-life cycle cost • Is adaptable to meet changing needs
Lessons Learned AE C • Early design commitments • Early consideration of MEP and structural systems • Cross-disciplinary design contribution • Synchronous communication • Common AutoCAD drawing
