Minimum Credits: 6
Maximum Credits: 6
Long Description Design-Build Studio is an option studio that will create a unique opportunity for students to develop a design project from its conception to execution in built form. In this studio, students will explore the advantages of design-build project delivery over a traditional design- bid-build delivery model. As a part of this process, students will navigate through various aspects of design and construction, including community engagement, considerations of sustainability and fabrication techniques. Over the course of 16 weeks, students will design and built a small structure that can be used as a gathering space for the campus community. The structure can be conceived as a pavilion or a seating area. Students will develop this structure in 5 phases: (1) Research & Analysis; (2) Schematic Design; (3) Design Development; (4) Construction Documents; (5) Construction.
