Middle
Atlantic REGION scip mEETING
October 8, 2009
A Specifiers Forum
hosted by SCIP was held at on
October 8, 2009 in
conjunction with the
2009 Middle Atlantic
Region Conference in Charlottesville, VA. In a
departure from previous conferences, the forum
was held prior to the start of the conference
instead of at the end.
The meeting was moderated by David Lorenzini,
Vice President of SCIP. Those in attendance
discussed various topics of interest to
specifiers, including the new CSI Construction
Information Award (EICI), RFIs, project specific
websites, and a recent thread on the CSI
Specifications Discussion Forum regarding
Specifications and Responsibility. the original
question of which was: "Is it a violation of your state
practice act (Architect/Engineer) to have
project specifications prepared by others
outside your office?"
These forums are open to all
specifiers, and they are a good opportunity to
discuss issues that are common to SCIP members
as well as non-members, especially those who
were not able to attend the SCIP Annual Meeting
at the CSI Show/Convention. |
