6.4 Architecture
A unique architectural design is highly desired by the owner. The architecture
of the model, as discussed in Section 2.21, will be assigned a score based on
annual revenue. Like the poster and presentation, an aesthetically pleasing
structure will have a similar effect as a high quality presentation. Vice-versa,
a rectangular box-like structure will receive a low architectural score. A
complete breakdown of annual income increases for architecture is shown in
the Table 6-3.

6.5 Workmanship
The distance between any two floors, center to center, should be:
Lobby Floor Height = 4in +/- 3/16in
Floor spacing = 2in +/- 3/16in .
The total height of the building, from top of base board to bottom of roof plate,
should be:
Building Height = (2*number of floors + 2in) +/- 3/8 in.
Failure to comply with dimensional tolerances will result in increased building
costs according to the following criteria:
M = +2% of total building cost per 3/16 inch per floor height deviation from
specified dimension
