DID YOU KNOW?
SCIP
HOSTS THREE FORUMS ON Csinet
There are three forums
officially hosted by SCIP on CSINet, all moderated by our
new SCIP Affiliate Director, William Pegues. To make it easy
for you to access them, the headings of each paragraph below
are unique links that take you directly to that forum.
Specifications Discussion:
This area is a place to post and look
for topics related to writing specifications – techniques,
styles, formats. Discuss the coordination with consultants
and the impact of requests for specific language,
exceptions, and potential liability consequences.
Construction Practices Discussion:
The good, the bad, and the
ugly sometimes happens to all of us. Look here for
construction contract administration topics.
Products/Systems Discussion:
Have you found something
new and interesting? Is there a product about which you are
unfamiliar? Ask or relate your experiences with different
systems and find out what practices are typical in different
regions of the country.
