DBIA National Design-Build Student Competition Finalists with Executive Director Lisa Washington
LIKE ACTORS at the Oscars waiting for the envelope
to be opened, their faces were stoic, but filled with
anticipation. Standing on the stage were the three
final student teams, selected from more than 40
teams around the country who had entered DBIA's
2013 National Design-Build Student Competition.
Representing Auburn University, California
State-Sacramento and Colorado State University,
these students came to DBIA's Design-Build National
Conference & Expo in Las Vegas to present their
plans for building a residence hall using design-build
project delivery in front of a prestigious jury. After
much deliberation, the jury selected the California
State-Sacramento team as 2013's first-place winner in front of an audience of more than 1,000
industry professionals.
The leadership ability, mastery of information
and communication skills displayed during the
presentation portion of the competition set the
California State-Sacramento team apart to take
the title.
The National Design-Build Student Competition
mirrors best practices in design-build project delivery
by breaking the competition into a two-phase process. In phase one, a general "problem" statement, or
request for qualifications (RFQ), was issued. Teams
of students from DBIA's regional chapters across the
country provided broad, all-encompassing solutions
to meet the qualifications needed to accomplish the
owner's goals.
The scope of the project was a new college
residence hall. The RFQ asked for teams with a
history of completing similar projects as well as
"professional commitment to excellence, teamwork, innovation and open communication." The
three- to five-floor residence hall would need to
include dorms as well as apartments, study rooms,
common areas for student interaction, a dining
