Building Features Owner Expectations
Independent Building Site Logistics Asbestos Summary Questions Owner Expectations The University of Maryland set a 2-year schedule for the project This thesis proposed several ways to possibly shorten this schedule instead of July 04-06, perhaps building could be ready for start of summer 2006 Quality is important because it is a research lab building, and the owner has given it a 2 year construction period to ensure this Even if schedule is not shortened, more time and effort can now be spent on improving building quality Matthew Hiestand Construction Management Senior Thesis Presentation April 13, 2005

Building Features Lessons Learned
Independent Building Site Logistics Asbestos Summary Questions Lessons Learned Usually every change requires a trade-off. For example: Independent Building Higher cost of construction vs. Schedule reduction No tie-ins needed vs. Different aesthetics Site Logistics Less congestion for workers vs. Less usable campus area for U. of MD What may originally appear a simple change, affects whole project Matthew Hiestand Construction Management Senior Thesis Presentation April 13, 2005
