徐岩奇 寫:台灣的建築設計則為被監造問題困住的關鍵...
嗯.........以建築師舉的例子,這裡有篇AIA會員寫的報告(在密西根大學的網站下,不知是否為教材?):
Commentary on AIA Document B141-1997
看來監造問題和第二頁的有點出入。

摘錄如下,等63頁看完再跟大家報告了:
Characterization of Services
Two ways of characterizing the architect’s services have been eliminated from B141-1997. The
first is the distinction between “basic” and “additional” services. Instead, services are either
included or not, and changes in services (entitling the architect to an adjustment in time, compensation
or both) are triggered by certain circumstances described in the agreement and services
forms. Second, services under B141-1997 are no longer grouped in phases. That arrangement
implied a linear model of service delivery that has limited applicability to today’s projects.
Instead, services are grouped by type or category, which helps the architect acquaint the client
with the full spectrum of possible services, thereby assisting the client in deciding which services
are desirable for the project. Services are grouped into six primary categories: project
administration, planning and evaluation, design, construction procurement, contract administration,
and facility operation. The level of services varies from category to category, but generally
approximates the level of services in the 1987 edition of B141. The narrative descriptions of
individual services are more explicit, however, in order to better convey what the client should
expect from the architect.
Responsibility for Cost Estimates and for Meeting the Owner’s Budget
Article 2.1 deals with general project administration, and includes services relating to cost estimates.
An important change relates to the architect’s obligations in the event the lowest responsive
bid or negotiated proposal exceeds the owner’s budget (which would ordinarily be the
amount stated in response to Clause 1.1.2.5.2). In this situation, at the owner’s option, the architect
is required to modify the drawings and specifications without additional compensation.
Earlier editions only required redesign if a fixed limit of construction cost had previously been
agreed to. In effect, the fixed limit (and correspondingly greater control by the architect over
design and procurement) now constitute the default mode.
Construction Contract Procurement
The architect’s responsibilities during construction contract procurement, including both the bidding
and negotiation processes, are spelled out in great detail. Few of the services described will

be new to architects. The descriptions are presented to assist the owner in understanding the
value the architect brings to these processes.
Construction Contract Administration
A number of minor changes have been made in the provisions governing the architect’s role in
construction contract administration. These include new requirements that the architect maintain
records with respect to submittals, applications for payment and changes in the Work, and procedures
for processing the contractor’s requests for information. The 1987 provision dealing
with contractor’s certifications has been expanded, and now requires that the architect specify
criteria that design services provided by the contractor must satisfy.
Facility Operation Meetings
B141-1997 continues the owner-architect relationship well past the date of substantial completion
of the project. The architect for the first time is contractually required to meet with the
owner (1) promptly after the date of substantial completion to review the need for facility operation
services and (2) within one year from the date of substantial completion to receive comments
and feedback on the performance of the building and to offer the owner appropriate recommendations.
These meetings give the owner a continued source of professional insight into
the functioning of the completed building, and allow the architect the opportunity to return to
the project to enhance client satisfaction.
