Contractor-Led Design-Build Project Delivery

This case study explores various aspects of contractor-led design-build project delivery. The owner hires a contractor to design and build a combined warehouse and office building. To provide the design, the contractor hires an architect to design the office building and separately hires a firm specializing in pre-engineered metal buildings for the warehouse. Selection of team partners and analysis of various design and construction alternatives are analyzed.
