Abstract/Summary

The purpose of this project was to create and provide the necessary pre-construction documents for a multi-purpose building in Croix des Bouquets, Haiti. This project aims to give occupants a new space to work freely in as it will be equipped with the essential needs. The rooms to be included within this building are offices, meeting rooms, general spaces, a workshop and computer lab – all of which will give the occupants the ability to work in an innovative environment. The project is overseen by three organizations. These groups are Journeyman International (JI), the Haitian American Caucus (HAC), and Third Lens Ministries. With Journeyman International being the head group, it created a team of three students in total. This included an architectural engineer, architect, and construction manager working in conjunction on this project. For the CM student, they are to work with the two other designers, consulting them and giving input from a construction perspective. As for the deliverables, Journeyman International expects the construction manager to create a scope analysis, safety plan, schedule, estimate, and quantity take-offs. It’s an honor for a student to be able to participate on a project that will help hundreds of those in need.
