American Water Works Association Design Build For Water And Wastewater Projects by Holly L Shorney darby
On its next capital construction project, would your water or wastewater utility like to achieve
Seven percent lower cost
Thirteen percent faster construction
Thirty-three percent faster overall schedule
Fifty percent less schedule growth?
These are some of the attractive benefits many water and wastewater utilities enjoy through the use of design-build construction over traditional design-bid-build construction. This book provides a basic template of how to plan, procure, and execute a design-build project.
Written for water and wastewater utility management, engineers, planners, city officials, utility policymakers, regulators, and design-build contractors, the book covers all topics:
History of design-build
Types of projects well suited for design-build
Steps to prepare for a design-build project
Procuring a design-builder
Executing design-build projects and performing acceptance tests
Bonding, insurance, and dispute resolution
Permitting and regulatory agency approvals
State laws regarding design-build
Design-Build for Water and Wastewater Projects was developed in collaboration with the Water Design-Build Council.
