OCTOBER MONTHLY MEETING
Phoenix Brick Yard Hoststhe CSI Monthly Meeting
October 4, 2012
Presentation: Insulation Strategies in Masonry WallsArchitects are putting more and more emphasis on well-insulated walls.The new International Energy Code for Conservation now requires a con-tinuous layer of insulation in the wall assembly. This layer of rigid insula-tion, typically installed in the air cavity, can complicate installation of theair barrier and the masonry ties.
This seminar will present several workable detail options and will teachyou how to build them right. The class will also help you weigh your insu-lation options…for efficiency, for water repellency, for fire rating and forcost.

Thank YouSpecial Guests
By: Angie France, CSI, CDT
The Phoenix Chapter truly enjoyed hosting theconvention this past week. It was a pleasure meetingpeople from across the country on the tours to DIRTT,Arcosanti and Taliesin West. I know many membersenjoyed hitting the lanes at our Lucky Strike Bowlingevent! I would personally like to extend a heartfeltappreciation to the Phoenix Chapter Members thatmade up the CONSTRUCT 2012 Committee. Theirhard work made the chapter event a great success,as well as the 125 volunteers we had participatethroughout the week. I had the pleasure of taking partin a long standing CSI tradition- the passing of thePanic Whistle. The whistle was passed to JimChristian, CSI, CDT, President-elect of the Nashville,Tennessee chapter. Nashville will be the host to the57th Annual Convention, September 2013.
Looking ahead to next month we have a fantasticprogram scheduled for October 4, 2012. We arehosting a Joint meeting with the Arizona MasonryGuild and Phoenix Brickyard . Our Guest speaker isDiane Travis, LEED AP, RMMI Technical Directorwho will be speaking on Insulation Strategies inMasonry Walls.
Diane’s background as a teacherand an architect prepared her wellfor her role as masonry industryadvisor, troubleshooter, and lec-turer. In addition to fielding nearly 2,500 technical calls each year from design professionalsand contractors, Diane conducts the Institute’s outreach services, including: masonry designpresentations to architects; informal job site consultations; reviews of conceptual and detaildrawings; and development of periodic literature and case studies. Diane received herMasters degree in Architecture from the University of Illinois at Chicago, 1985. In 1989, shebecame a registered architect in Illinois. Prior to her arrival at RMMI, Diane was a projectdesigner with Denver’s Daniel, Mann, Johnson & Mendenhall. Before that, she spent fouryears with the local firm of Klipp Colussy Jenks DuBois as a job captain on such notable
masonry projects as the Denver Central Library. Diane can be reached at 303-893-3838 or [email protected]
CSI also plans to celebrate “SPECtember” in September with events and messaging focused on the importanceof understanding specifications and specifying. The goal of this promotion is to remind the constructioncommunity that specifications play an important role in delivering projects on time and on budget, that specifyingis an important skill, and that all the construction teams are affected by the specifications.
As part of this promotion, each of CSI’s Practice Groups will talk about specifications as they relate the group’smain topic. CSI will also offer a free copy of MasterFormat 2012 to new members who join in September.

CONSTRUCT 2012
Are Specifiers Weak in Faith?Sheldon Wolfe, RA, FCSI, CCS, CCCA, CSC
Because of a CSI Specifiers Practice Group discussion in a couple of weeks, I'm moving this subject forward;we'll get back to changes in contract documents later.
About a hundred years ago, when AIA produced the document that eventually would become the familiar A201,much more work was done in the field. Reference standards had yet to be developed, and industryorganizations did not yet offer the industry standards that are common today. And, because the architectwas in control of the project, specifications were required to tell the contractor all that had to be done.
Since then, a lot has changed. We now have countless codes, industry standards, and references standards,which, together, set minimum requirements for just about everything. Much more work is fabricated off site, incontrolled factory conditions, making today's materials and products far more reliable and consistent than theywere a century ago. We often hear about the great quality of bygone days, and there is some truth to that, butthe reality is that today's work is generally superior.
All of these things suggest specifications should be shorter, and I believe that to be true. However, specificationsare longer than ever, and seem to grow with each new version. The main reason is redundancy, a result of thespecifier's lack of faith in the documents we use.
Let's start with the conditions of the contract, specifically the AIA documents, probably the most commonly used.Other general conditions are used, but they often are similar to those published by AIA.
Read what is said about the responsibilities of the architect and of the contractor. In essence, the architect isresponsible for showing what the building should look like, and what materials should be used where, and thecontractor is responsible for pretty much everything else. Note there is nothing that requires the architect to tellthe contractor, or manufacturer, or installer how to do their jobs. In fact, it states "The contractor shall be solelyresponsible for and have control over construction means, methods, techniques, sequences, and proceduresand for coordinating all portions of the Work…"
This makes sense; the contractor knows more about how to run a job, the manufacturers know more about theirproducts, and the installers know more about their work than the architect can possibly understand. So why dospecifications delve sodeeply into these mat-ters? Why do they tell thecontractor how toschedule, how to install,and how to coordinate?
There are good reasonsfor some of this. Forexample, it may be thatpart of a project has to bedone first, to allow theowner to move from onearea to another, butbeyond that, it is thecontractor's job to figureout what gets done when.
In addition to the condi-tions of the contract, we have Division 01, which, properly used, can eliminate many of the requirementscommonly found in specifications.
SHELDON WOLFE
In Division 01, we specify those things that apply toeverything: selection of materials, storage, handling,installation, following manufacturers' instructions,
compliance with standards, acceptance of conditions, andso on.
With just those basic requirements, we're well on the wayto reducing the length of specifications. It requires faith,but it is logical, defensible, and enforceable. The basicrule is, if it's in the conditions or Division 01, take it out ofthe section. Think of it as "specification by exception."Rely on the documents, and all you need to worry about ishow what you want differs from the standards or themanufacturers' instructions.
Part 1: Use "related work" as intended, a way to help thereader find something that normally would be expected inthis section but is not.
Part 2: Remove substitution requirements. If you havespecific products in mind, state what they are. If you'reopen to competitive products, specify theperformance. Don't specify those things that are not es-sential, and may not be the same for all products.
Part 3: Unless you know more about installation than themanufacturer and the installer, there isn't much to say,except for quality control requirements.
Know your reference standards. If you specify insulation as ASTM C578, Type IV, there is no need to go on andspecify the thermal resistance, compressive strength, water absorption, or vapor permeance. On the other hand,if the standard you are using has options, be sure to indicate which are required.
When you specify more than necessary, you enter into the "means and methods" area, and, in so doing, youassume the contractor's responsibility. If something goes wrong, the contractor can say, "I did what I was told"and you're on the hook.
With faith in the documents, it should be possible to specify almost anything in half a page (at least forarchitectural products, though I suspect mechanical and electrical specifications also can be reduced). Usingroofing as an example, if I state the wind loads, the required fire-resistive rating, the type ofmembrane, applicable standards, requiredoptions, warranty, and field quality controlrequirements, what else do I have to say?The manufacturer's instructions cover all therelated materials, and how it gets installed.Here's where the exception part comes in; ifthe manufacturer's standard flashing height isfour inches, but I want eight, I say that.The result? Easy to write, easy to bid, easy toenforce.

“We’ve got 47 cottage industries right here in Chandler just as a result of Intel,” Mayor JayTibshraeny says with a great deal of pride.
For many, the term “cottage industry” brings pictures of a couple of guys in the garagebuilding prototypes or a part-time mom-based business building equity while the kids nap.That’s not Chandler’s picture of a cottage industry. Picture the shimmering white tanksand towers along Loop 101 just north of Loop 202—Air Products, that’s a Chandlercottage industry.
Picture the combined 50K SF of Chandler and ASU Innovation Centers or the new AKOengineering design offices. Those are Chandler cottage industries. Bioscience, technologyand secure mobile are just some of the business categories directly connected to Intel. “Six businesses on thePrice Corridor,” says the Mayor, “opened solely for the purpose of delivering services to Intel.”
Economic Growth Surrounds IntelChandler’s largest employer kicked off last week with an announcement of its latest development: a 285K SF,$300M research and development center on the West Chandler campus. Construction is still ongoing for the$5.2B Fab42 facility. Chandler and Intel officials will not confirm, but sources tell AZBEX there are reportsfloating about an Ocotillo Campus administrative complex or mirror-imaged Fab42-2 to start sometime afterIntel’s DX-1 facility is completed in Hillsboro, Ore. in 2013. Economic conditions will dictate actual start dates.
“Six businesses on the Price Corridor opened solely for the purpose of delivering services to Intel.” Mayor JayTibshraeny Chandler says Intel spins off three to four additional Valley jobs for each employee it hires.
“We’re looking ahead to a solid future for our citizens,” explained Mayor Tibshraeny. “We can see our ultimatebuildout, and we know that once it gets close, we need to focus on infill and redevelopment. Our vision is to putin place a solid economic development base.”
The person charged with that responsibility, Economic Development Director Christine Mackay, is one of themost respected leaders in the field in Arizona. Booked in meetings from the moment she walks in the door at the
new Chandler city hall until late inthe day, Mackay juggles downtowndevelopment opportunities, businessretention and business recruitment.
Chandler Innovation CenterGrows New Businesses“We’re really proud of the InnovationCenter,” she says. “We’ve got anumber of companies in theregrowing and developing, and it’s timefor us to come up with some‘teenager space.’” With a 24 to 36month timeline for businessincubation, Mackay is looking for atransition to help businesses moveout from the city-supported offices atthe center and into the normalbusiness world.
ROCK SOLID VISION FOR CHANDLERECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

“Our incubating businesses find themselves surprised at the costs of running an office,”she explains. “We provide the basic support—copiers, conference rooms, technologicalinfrastructure. Once they outgrow incubation, they are responsible for those costs andthere’s a degree of sticker shock when a business is in between the Innovation Centerand profitability.”
“Incubating businesses ready to grow out of the incubator find sticker shock with the costof setting up their own offices.” Christine Mackay
“We call these the ‘teenagers,’ and we’re evolving the concept of transitional space forgrowth. We’re seeing some of our major business developers stepping into this concept,”echoes the mayor. “Several major business centers in the Price Corridor have indicated an interest in providingsupport for fledgling businesses coming out of the incubator.” Chandler Freeway Crossing, Red Rock BusinessCenter, Allred’s Park Place, and Mark IV Capital are among those who have stepped into this unique market.
“We need to have places for these businesses to grow because incubated businesses already have roots in thecommunity and should not need to move elsewhere for expansion,” says Mackay.
Combined with Chandler’s Innovation Center, ASU extended its Polytechnic campus into its Chandler College ofTechnology and Innovation as an engineering and technology-based education and research center. Locateddowntown, 249 E. Chicago St., between Chandler Blvd. and Frye Rd., the center scored another coup with theinclusion of the new TechShop workshop chain developing a site inside the facility.
This is the first of a three part series from an August 15th conversation between AZBEX publisher Rebekah Morris and SeniorCorrespondent Eric Jay Toll with Mayor Tibshraeny and Economic Development Director Christine Mackay in the Mayor’s conferenceroom at Chandler City Hall. Part 2 publishes on August 24th, Part 3 on August 28th, focusing on Chandler’s Downtown Core, and then astudy of individual properties in downtown Chandler, both city-owned and those controlled by private entities.

CODE CORNER
Construction Documents RevisitedBy: Ronald L. Geren, AIA, CSI, CCS, CCCA, SCIP
The topic of construction documents was addressed in a previous article of The Code Corner1. However, themessage of that article was the broad subject of construction documents by building code definition and did notbroach methods of how to actually communicate code-related information in the documents. This article and acompanion article in RLGA’s Keynotes2 series will expand on the previous Code Corner article by introducingmethods to better communicate building code compliance within the drawings and specifications.

WHAT CAN WE LEARN ABOUT PAINT COLOR FROM“PRETTIEST PAINTED PLACES IN AMERICA”
Originally published by Paint Quality InstituteSubmitted by Tim Garver, CSI, CDT, LEED AP, Dunn Edwards
The Paint Quality Institute periodically searches for the prettiest painted communities in America. By looking atthe towns and neighborhoods that have won top honors in its "Prettiest Painted Places in America"competitions, we can all learn a lot about exterior paint color selection.
The winning communities are often very different from each other. Past winners have come from every part ofthe country, and they've run the gamut from historical towns to sparkling new, planned communities.
They do, however, have one thing in common: All of the communities take great pride in their appearance.Some go so far as to specify or regulate the exterior color palette.
Whether exterior paint colorsare specified or not, virtuallyall of the past "winners" havebeen awash in color. Home-owners and business ownersin most of the placesembraced color as adecorative medium. Theyknew intuitively that colorfulpainted exteriors added curbappeal and helped make theircommunities special.
Perhaps there are tips we can take from these communities to make our own homes a "prettiest painted place".A common characteristic of homes and buildings in the winning places was the way they made the most of theirarchitecture. In many cases, different surfaces and architectural elements were painted in different colors tomake the details stand out.
The use of multiple colors was commonplace. Color schemes often employed not just two or three colors, butfour, five, and more. The complex palettes gave texture to the architecture and celebrated the details.
There was also fearlessness about paint color, which might be expected in the beachfront towns. But eveninland, understated color schemes were frequently punched up with a bold accent color or two.
What can we learn from these beautiful places? That color is a powerful way to enhance the appearance of anystructure. We have to paint for maintenance purposes anyway, so why not create something special with ourcolor scheme?
The next time you plan to paint the exterior of your home or business, take a long, hard look at the exterior. Arethere ways to highlight its interesting architectural elements? What if you used four paint colors instead of justtwo or three? How else can paint color help embellish the exterior? These are some of the questions you shouldask yourself.
And, don't be overwhelmed by the many paint colors available today. You don't have to go it alone when creat-ing an exterior color scheme. Check out the literature at your local paint store and you'll find beautiful color-coordinated palettes that can serve as guides. Some paint companies even have color "visualizers" that let yousee how different color schemes would look on your home or business.
By the way, after a 12-year hiatus, the Paint Quality Institute is in the process of conducting another competitionto find the "Prettiest Painted Places in America" right now. You can follow the search on blog.paintquality.com,where you'll see which communities are in the running... and, in October, which are chosen as the country's 12most beautiful painted places!
