Engineering narratives describing design criteria, system analysis, and options
Task B – Schematic Design
- A.Based on the Owner's approval of the conceptual layouts, and on the Owner's authorization of any adjustments in the Project requirements and the budget for the Cost of the Work, SSA shall prepare Schematic Design Documents for the Owner's approval.
- B.The Schematic Design Documents shall illustrate and describe the development of the approved conceptual layouts and shall consist of drawings and other documents including plans, sections, elevations, typical construction details, and diagrammatic layouts of building systems to fix and describe the size and character of the Project as to architectural, structural, and electrical systems, and such other elements as may be appropriate. The Schematic Design Documents shall also identify major materials and systems and establish in general their quality levels.
- C.The Architect shall submit the Schematic Design Documents to the Owner and request the Owner's approval.
- D.SSA will update the estimate of the Cost of the Work based on the Schematic Design Documents.
- E.Schematic Design Phase includes up to (3) meetings with Owner when applicable.
Deliverables:
- Meeting Notes from each of the meeting(s) that clearly notes the decisions made and the changes identified.
- Schematic Architectural plans to include:
- Architectural Site Plan
- Roof Plans
- Exterior Elevations
- Typical Wall Sections
- Engineering narratives describing design criteria, system analysis, and options
- Preliminary Engineering narratives to describe the structural and electrical building systems.
- Preliminary civil engineering plans
Task C – Final Design Phase: Preparation of Plans and Specifications
- A.Based on the Owner's approval of the Schematic Design Documents, and on the Owner's authorization of any adjustments in the Project requirements and the budget for the Cost of the Work, SSA shall prepare Construction Documents for the Owner's approval.
- B.The Construction Documents shall illustrate and describe the further development of the approved Schematic Design Documents and shall consist of Drawings and Specifications setting forth in detail the quality levels of materials and systems and other requirements for
