Below
are some of the projects that Miss Ward has been
involved in.
Conversion of a Community Activities Center into
a Conference Center
After meeting with the client it was clear that
their main objective was to finish the construction
of the project in 3 1/2 months. This was a design
build project. The client had their in house
contractor construct the renovation.
The client wanted an adaptive-reuse of an existing
activities center into a conference center. The
4,000 square foot one-story masonry structure was
20 years old. The design of the conference room,
and lobby took a week. The restaurant area, and
foyer took less than a week. This redoing or
renovation of a facility is quite common and in
this situation was very economical for the client.
The cost of construction was $216,000.00 including
overtime for the construction workers. This is not
always the case with building renovation projects
but because this was a simple newer building cost
was kept at a minimum. Older projects of this type
of project would cost twice as much because of
unforeseen site conditions uncovered during
construction. The design cost for the project was
3% of the construction cost. Design services can
cost 3-10 % depending on the complexity of the
design. Because it was constructed by an in-house
contractor construction documents and the bidding
process were not needed.
