SKA performed a third party review of the building envelope design at multiple stages including at SD, DD, 50%CD and 95% CD. Throughout the process SKA provided comments to the Architectural team. Several work sessions were conducted to review SKA’s comments with the team and to receive feedback from the designers related to their intent. The result of this process was a set of Construction Documents that best conveyed the design intent and reduced the number of RFI’s related to the constructability of the building envelope. SKA worked with the design and construction team during the pre-installation phase of the building envelope to coordinate the installation process for the building envelope materials during multiple work sessions. In these work sessions the subcontractor’s responsibilities were stated and the order of installation was fully defined by the Contractor in coordination with the Designer and SKA. SKA also provided construction period services to review the installation of the building envelope systems and to serve as an extra set of eyes for the Owner and the design team. Testing services during the construction phase included window water and air penetration testing, air barrier smoke chamber testing, and an infrared survey of the roof.
