Week 7- Building Delivery Approaches

Architects, educated as generalists, face a wide range of roles and settings in practice. Conventional forms of project delivery are explored: design/bid/build; construction manager at risk; and design/build. In addition, alternative delivery forms are identified including modular and manufactured housing as well as emerging approaches to prefabrication. Delivery approaches have implications for the design team (including sub-consultant selection and the time at which construction costs are identified). They also can be influenced by design approaches and tools, such as integrated design and building information modeling.
