Code, structure, and construction. The classification decision that drives every system after it, the fire-protection triggers, the structural choice that is really a 50-year maintenance commitment, the durability stack, the dated cost par, and the delivery method that decides where the risk sleeps. Eight modules from the code official's first question to the notice to proceed.
The classification that drives everything: two tests, and the facade that fails them by accident.
Read the module →Underground, mixed-use, mechanical access: the cases that surrender the open-garage economics.
Read the module →IBC, NFPA 88A, and what actually triggers sprinklers -- decided in schematic, not at permit.
Read the module →Precast vs. post-tensioned: a maintenance commitment wearing a construction method.
Read the module →The column decision: 60 to 64 feet clear, and what the premium buys for the building's life.
Read the module →Durability as a stack: water first, skins next, then cover, chemistry, and honest joints.
Read the module →The $29,000 space, decomposed and date-stamped -- the par the estimate must move from.
Read the module →DBB, CM at risk, design-build, P3: pick where the risk sits, then pick the method.
