Abstract/Summary
This paper details the preconstruction process involving the replacement and redesign of the north wall at the CAED Support Shop at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. Accomplished by an interdisciplinary team of Architectural Engineering and Construction Management students, this project explores the requirements and procedures of generating a project proposal to submit to Cal Poly Facilities Management. The project, initiated in the fall of 2024, aimed to redesign the wall aligned with the adjacent Engineering West building and replace it with a CMU low lift grouted wall. The CAED Support Shop is offered as a resource to all CAED students to have access to construction tools to work on projects for their classes as well as personal use. By rebuilding the north wall, it will allow students to have a safe space to work on these projects while also increasing the aesthetic appeal of the courtyard. This project offers an immersive, hands-on experience that will improve their skills in project planning, design integration, and construction execution. The goal of the CM student is to complete the project initialization for the new CMU wall for the Support Shop Entrance. The goal for the team is to complete documentation for the Cal Poly Facilities requirements, ensuring compliance with permit regulations. This includes the finalization of all documentation necessary for obtaining permits, in addition to planning the phasing and scheduling of the project to minimize downtime for the Support Shop.
