irresponsive to increases in prices. In the UK a significant shortage of housing explains why house prices have risen much faster than inflation and earnings. Housing construction involves more stages than most of other products. New homes building depends on land acquisition, planning and development stages and then the construction itself. Between 1981 and 2014 there has been a steady growth in total dwelling stock by 30%, and by 13.5% between 1997 and 2014. However, when looking at the level…
trait; they may all be considered “tectonics” of a project. The fundamentals of architecture may be referred to as “tectonics” due to the fact that they are elements “pertaining to building or construction in general” (Frampton, 1990, p.93). Frascari (1994) believes that “located within tectonics is an endless set of…
subcontractor who is to provide the floating floors for the project. The subcontractor asked about how to view the most recent construction documents. I directed him to our file transfer protocol (FTP) site, which houses all of the documents that have been issued, approved requests for information (RFIs), and submittals. After checking the site to make sure the subcontractor was set up on the site, I was able to give him the information he needed to access the documents. This afternoon I…

changes were required the process of designing these changes would take several weeks[3] so that quotes could be gathered and the price of the changes could be agreed upon.

This difference would also have prevented the…
