The book will describe the standard procedures, which make up the whole life cycle of a design and build project. The first section will include the introduction, commentary on the procurement route, specifics of design and build, and the specific documents which make up the design and build environment. The second section describes the process of tendering, how the contractor runs the project and input required from others, the specific JCT conditions of contract, the consultants roles, and finally a general who's who of those involved in the project. These will be interspersed with illustrated case studies, clearly showing the quality achieved on the project, this quality is a summary of the design as well as the actual builder's ability. A proportion of these case studies will be from America and Europe, to provide a summary of how Design and Build works in other countries.
Design and Build is the latest in the Architecture in Practice series, and one of the few books on the market that looks directly at Design and Build. Design and Build has become the dominant way of procuring a building, and it is now used from the smallest commercial extension up to the largest privately financed building. Making the contractor responsible for the design seems at odds with the traditional architectural education, but the whole process is developing and evolving. By analysing specific buildings the book is intended to fully describe how Design and Build works now, how it will develop and provide guidance on how consultants can get the best out of this new relationship. The book will be interspersed with 'text boxes', which will contain specific points of guidance, good practice, or problems to be avoided. It will also contain illustrated case studies, a proportion of which will be from America and Europe, to provide a summary of how Design and Build works in different countries.
