55. DECISION MATRIX SQUARE BASE DESIGN Strong concept and good interior plan. The structural system is integral in the building aesthetic. Looks complicated but can be build with current equipment and tools. DOUBLE SQUARE DESIGN Weaker concept with too much columns going to the ground. Structural analysis is complicated and time consuming. More foundation works and complex auditorium construction DOUBLE SQUARE DESIGN Most inhibited rooms have good external view. Has more columns to pass building loads to the ground. Has bigger staging area to work with. SQUARE BASE DESIGN Requires effort to work around the fire requirements. Long huge spans to support building loads. Requires precise sequencing of tasks during construction. REDESIGN Need to have less angular smaller rooms. Auditorium causes less flexible 3rd Floor layout. Most expensive among these three options. REDESIGN Better quality learning and working spaces. Less complicated to framing system. Conventional construction method. PROSCONS

56. RECOMMENDATIONS We are recommending the Square Base Design for further development: A- The quality of space and the overall design is good while building is able to satisfy all technical requirements. E- The structural system is simple yet elegant and plays an integral part of the design. C- Even though it looked complicated, it is actually cheaper and simpler to build.

57. TEAM DYNAMICS C- Build an Offshore Oil Rig E- Design a Bridge A- Design A Highrise 2. SHIFT IN DESIGN APPROACH 1. DUAL BACKGROUND PROFESSIONALS Architect is also Construction Manager Engineer is also Architect Construction Manager is also Engineer 3. HAVING GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH THE OWNER

58. VALUABLE LESSONS So far, we have learned: A- It is better to start collaborating earlier in design. E- Solutions only work through communication C- Time management is very crucial. Thank you In Spring 2001: A- Use IT tools more efficiently. E- Be more assertive in communicating structural necessities C- Managing time and scheduling teamwork.
