Program Summaries
Construction 4113: Essential Advanced Watershapes — Commercial
Course Description
Commercial pools, spas, lazy rivers and waterparks proceed through a very different path than residential watershapes. Where a residential pool and spa is often developed from concept to completion by a single contractor, commercial projects are typically comprised of much larger teams of architects, landscape architects, pool designers, engineers, contractors and others who must operate under a more stringent set of standards, codes and coordination with municipalities, health departments, owners and developers. This affects everything from design to insurance and cash flow. The upside is that the scale of the projects can result in higher net profits but the downside is that there is a lot to learn. Fortunately, we can help flatten the learning curve with this two-day program.
Learning Objectives
-
Discuss project development including programming, concept design, standards, codes (e.g., ADA and MAHC), site, facility and ancillary requirements (e.g., toilets, showers, etc.)
-
Evaluate operational considerations to balance construction budget and ongoing expenses with expected revenue for an optimal design.
-
Define the phases of commercial design and construction and how these differ from residential projects.
-
Assess contractor requirements, specifications, construction management, the submittal process, cash-flow, project delivery methods and ongoing warranties and service considerations.
