What do you do when a hole is misplaced? Or if the columns aren't plumb? More importantly, what can you do to prevent these problems from occurring in the first place? This seminar covers a wide range of topics, including material specifications, connection design requirements, standard details, sizing material for constructability, use of mill reports, perimeter details for tilt-up and precast concrete walls, design procedures for fast-track construction, electronic data transfer, and shop drawing approval procedures. You will be introduced to the types of errors that typically occur in the design office, in the fabricating shop, and in the field. You will gain the tools and knowledge necessary to "fix" problems that occur in the field.
