    Description of the Ethical Issues in Design-Build

    The Ethical Issues in Design-Build online PDH course is a part of the Ethics, Laws and Rules category of courses. This course discusses the fundamentals of design-build, the difference between construction delivery and construction procurement processes, the difference between subjective and objective criteria as a basis for design-build contract award, and the ethical issues engineers and architects are faced with when a design-build process is employed.

    The widespread growth of “design-build” presents ethical issues for engineers and architects.  If these issues are not addressed it is likely public reaction to abuses the process invites will result in the loss of design-build as a construction delivery process.  The dilemma for the engineer or architect posed by the conflict between the owner’s and general contractor’s interests in the design-build process is discussed, as are the ethical issues that arise when subjective criteria are used to award design-build contracts.  This course offers steps that can be taken by individual engineers and engineering societies to resolve these ethical issues while retaining design-build as a construction delivery option.

    This course will illuminate ethical issues for engineers and architects arising from the design-build process, and will offer proposals for how the design and construction community can resolve these issues while retaining the positive aspects of the design-build process.

    This course is intended for engineers and architects employed by public agencies and private companies as well as those who are self-employed.  It will also be valuable for construction professionals who are concerned with the long-term health of their industry.
