Outline of Final Research Achievements

Today, the variety of building delivery methods, so-called “hybrid system” in which more than one entity having design responsibility will be involved, rather than traditional design-bid-build or design build methods, has been increasing. In such delivery methods, however, there could be certain concern as to potential inconsistency among design as a whole and designs for parts/portions and their interfaces. For this reason, it seems indispensable to establish appropriate management/control measures for projects such as contracts. This study focused on mechanism of possible collaboration between entities who share design responsibilities, through comparative analysis between Japan and UK/USA as to the development of relating practices and/or social system, and has established fundamental structure of such collaboration mechanism, and as well, accompanying problems to be solved.
