Specifications in the Project Life Cycle: Construction Documents
The Construction Documents Stage of the Project Life Cycle is concerned with the preparation of documents that will be used to obtain bid
prices or upon which a negotiated contract can be based.
These documents include
- Geotechnical Data
- Property Surveys
- Procurement Documents
- Construction Agreements
- Conditions of the Contract
- More Detailed Drawings
- Civil, Structural and M-E-P designs
- Designs of other disciplines
- Full 3-Part Specifications
The 3-Part Specifications prepared in this phase are organized by MasterFormat for most types of Project Delivery Methods, but may be organized using UniFormat for Design-Build project delivery.
These specification sections are prepared using SectionFormat, hence the 3-Part terminology.
