UAP Docs 200-209 Part 1 Flashcards
Example of buildings of the simplest utilization and character
Armories
Architects and/or PRC registered architectural firms (AFs) submit information regarding their qualification and expertise
Pre-qualification
The Architect explains his methodology in translating the plan or design requirements of the proposed project
Interview
The selection committee may visit buildings designed by the Architects and check references such as former clients and financial institutions
Verification
The selection committee may adopt its own procedure in evaluating the entries and recommending the most capable firm
Evaluation & ranking
The Architect explains to the client the Scope of Services and the Architect’s Fee as prescribed under the Architect’s Guidelines
Negotiation
Used of civic or monumental projects. The competition may either be an idea competition, design, or design-build competition. Various Architects or Architectural Firms (AFs) submit plan or design solutions to a particular design problem and are judged on the basis of comparative excellence.
Architectural Design Competition (ADC)
Services cover a broad line of architectural services ranging from initial problem identification to activities that would allow the Architect to initially conceptualize an array of architectural and allied solutions
Pre-Design
When a Client calls upon the Architect to give oral or written advice and direction, to attend conferences, to make evaluations and appraisals regarding a contemplated project and similar activities, the Architect renders valuable inputs whether or not the Client pursues the project
Consultation
These preliminary studies involve the procurement, analysis, and the use of secondary information gathered for the project to aid the Client in early decision-making
Pre-Feasibility Studies
They represent the Architect’s initial assessment of a project’s soundness, allowing the Client to promptly explore available identifiable directions.
Pre-Feasibility Studies
Detailed analysis of the project based on pre-feasibility studies that determine the viability of a proposed development. The studies will set the project against present and future trends to forecast how it will perform over time. This requires primary data gathering and analysis.
Feasibility Studies
This entails the formulation of site criteria, assistance to the Client in site evaluation as well as analysis to determine the most appropriate site/s for a proposed project or building program
Site Selection and Analysis
The detailed analysis of the site that involves the identification of a site’s development potentials through the proper utilization of land. The analysis covers the context of the site as well as that of its surrounding environment and the development controls that apply to the site and its environs.
Site Utilization and Land-Use Studies
Entails the conduct of primary and secondary researches and assembled facts used as the basis for the conclusion
Architectural Research
This analytical problem seeking process will lead to the statement and identification of both horizontal and vertical requirements in offering a solution. It incorporates a space program with characterizations of the envisioned spaces such as ambiance, cost, range, etc.
Architectural Programming
The Architect determines the adequate size and appropriate configuration and assemblage for a proposed project in consideration of the use, allocation, and interface of spaces for given activities.
Space Planning
An analysis of the space requirements of the project based on organizational structure and functional set-up pinpoints linkages and interaction of spaces. The formulation of the space program will serve as the basis for the development of the architectural plan/design.
Space Management Studies
This technique is applied in the cost management process to minimize the negative effect of simplified operations associated with many cost-reduction programs.
Value Management
The Architect states the project terms of reference (ToR) including the concept, objectives, and other necessary requirements to bid out architectural services (whether public or private)
Design Brief Preparation
Projects may require promotional activities in order to develop and generate financial support and acceptance from governing agencies or from the general public
Promotional Services
Reviews and refines the Owner’s space requirements and translates them into an architectural program
Project Definition Phase
Consults with the Owner to ascertain the conceptual framework and related requirements of the project and confirms such requirements with the Owner
Project Definition Phase
Gathers relevant information and data leading to the definition of the requirements of the project, including the scope of the Architect’s services
Project Definition Phase
The goal is to achieve an unimpaired program at minimum cost. Thus, a plan, design, or system that has been successfully value-managed will still satisfy the same performance criteria as the costlier alternatives.
Value Management
Reviews and refines the Owner’s space requirements and translates them into an architectural program
Project Definition Phase
Prepares an initial statement of probable construction cost
Project Definition Phase
Evaluates the Owner’s program, schedule, budget, project site, and proposes methods of project deliveries
Schematic Design Phase
Submits to the Owner a Statement of the Probable Project Construction Cost (SPPCC) based on current cost parameters
Schematic Design Phase
Prepares the initial line drawings representing the design studies leading to a recommended solution, including a general description of the project for approval by the Owner
Schematic Design Phase
This phase consisting of plans, elevations, sections, and other drawings
Design Development Phase
Outline specifications to fix and illustrate the size and character of the entire project as to type of materials, type of structural, electrical, mechanical, sanitary, electronic, and communications system
Design Development Phase
The diagrammatic layout of construction systems, and an updated SPPCC for submission to the Owner
Design Development Phase
Prepares Technical Specifications describing type and quality of materials, finish, manner of construction, and the general conditions under which the project is to be constructed
Contract Document Phase
Prepared the complete Contract Documents consisting of detailed designs and construction drawings, setting forth in detail the work required for the architectural, structural, electrical, plumbing or sanitary, mechanical, electronic, and communication works prepared by the Architect and the respective professionals involved
Contract Document Phase
Submits to the Owner seven (7) sets of all construction drawings and technical specifications for purposes of obtaining a building permit
Contract Document Phase
Updates the SPPCC based on changes in scope, requirements, or market conditions
Contract Document Phase
Assists the Owner in filing the required documents to secure approval of government authorities having jurisdiction over the design of the Project
Contract Document Phase
Prepared the Bid Documents such as forms for contract letting, documents for construction, forms for invitation and instruction to bidders, forms for bidders’ proposals, general or specific conditions of contract, etc.
Bidding or Negotiation Phase
Assists the Owner from the early stage of establishing a list of prospective Contractors to awarding of the construction contract
Bidding or Negotiation Phase
The phase that makes decisions on all claims of the Owner and Contractors on all matters relating to the execution and progress of work or the interpretation of the Contract Documents
Construction Phase
Prepares change orders, gathers, and turns over to the Owner written guarantees required of the Contractor and Sub-Contractors
Construction Phase
Makes periodic visits to the project site to familiarize himself with the general progress and quality of work and to ascertain that the work is proceeding in accordance with the Contract Documents
Construction Phase
Determines the amount owing and due to the Contractor and issues corresponding Certificates for Payment for such amounts based on his observations and the Contractor’s Applications for Payment
Construction Phase
A separate full-time supervisor shall be hired and agreed upon by the Owner and the Architect subject to the conditions provided in the SPP Document on full-time supervision, should more extensive inspection or full-time construction supervision be required by the Client.
