This book was released on 1999 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Currently, most SHAs and contractors use traditional methods. However, more exact time estimates and closer cost predictions are necessary to enable the use of these innovative methods. This research will explore the following topics. For the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) (1) how to determine a reasonable range of B in an A + B contract, and (2) how to determine a maximum incentive and maximum days of incentive in an I/D contract. For contractors interested in FDOT projects, (1) what is the best strategy to determine a bid price in an I/D contract, and (2) what is the best strategy to determine a bid price using an A + B + I/D contract. Data from the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) are used to verify models to respond to the topics above.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 402: Construction Manager-at-Risk Project Delivery for Highway Programs explores current methods in which state departments of transportation and other public engineering agencies are applying construction manager-at-risk (CMR) project delivery to their construction projects. CMR project delivery is an integrated team approach to the planning, design, and construction of a highway project, to help control schedule and budget, and to help ensure quality for the project owner. The team consists of the owner; the designer, who might be an in-house engineer; and the at-risk construction manager. The goal of this project delivery method is to engage at-risk construction expertise early in the design process to enhance constructability, manage risk, and facilitate concurrent execution of design and construction without the owner relinquishing control over the details of design as it would in a design-build project.
