Since the course was offered as a construction course, grading of the project modelsfocused on the modeling of required objects and accuracy rather than the design aesthetic value.Term project RequirementsEach student was required to build the architectural model of a 3-story office building with asurface area between 20,000 sf and 40,000 sf. The project BIM models developed by the studentswere expected to contain the following required elements: a. Grids: Proper dimensions and nomenclature must be used. (2 points) b.

The definitions are a) brochures, b) advertisement, c) selling projects, d)selling services, e) Appearances/neatness of project sites, e) logo, g) safe work, h) businessdevelopment.The aim of this question is to observe if their perception towards marketing is changed afterthe lecture.Business development in construction is composed of marketing and sales. Therefore,students are introduced to construction marketing and sales concepts. Marketing activitiesinclude all the efforts put in place to retain existing clients as well as identifying new ones.When a contract is

In construction safety classes, students areoften asked to demonstrate their hazard recognition abilities by taking and critiquing on-site Page 26.1675.3images, or reporting a job site visit. Visits to construction sites are unique experiences thatcannot be completely replaced by other learning methods. However, they come with a number ofconstraints (sometimes even safety hazards) and cannot be arranged as often as needed [12].Many of the key technical principles that students should learn can be illustrated through casestudies [20].

Based on their essay, available projects, and student input, students are then dividedinto teams and are given the opportunity to choose a project from projects offered by industry, orthey have found on their own.For each project, the student team must prepare the following over the two semester time frame: a. Existing property information, general project description, project goals, (includes site visit information, photos, and research of property information) b. Prepare a Pro Forma analysis and discussion of project costs and benefits c. Prepare a GAP Analysis or justification of the project along with

Consequently, the guidelines arecreated for any discipline involved in designing and constructing a building, not just constructionmanagers, thus guidelines specifically focused for construction managers is needed. Further,specific technical guidelines towards a specialization, such as electrical, demolition, orhealthcare, would help to provide more depth for the students interested in these areas ofconstruction.
