R&R PROJECT MANAGERS
FEP OBJECTIVE<br />
• Define the Scope of work to a degree<br />
that will support the production of a<br />
+10% accurate estimate.<br />
– Identify ANY item that could be of risk.<br />
– Eliminate surprises.<br />
– Improve project success predictability.<br />

What Is PDRI<br />
6
PDRI<br />
• An Acronym<br />
– Project Definition Rating Index<br />
• An Index<br />
– Score along a continuum representing the<br />
level of scope definition<br />
• A Risk Management Tool<br />
– Identifies and measures risks related to<br />
project scope definition<br />
7
PDRI OBJECTIVE<br />
• Evaluate the Scope of Work as WE understand it<br />
TODAY!<br />
– Can we estimate it to an accuracy of 10%<br />
– Can we execute:<br />
• On Budget<br />
• On Schedule<br />
• And meet the Owner Business OBJECTIVES<br />
8
SCORE CARD<br />
• Score Card for Completeness of Scope Definition<br />
– Guide to prepare scope of work<br />
– Checklist<br />
– Common Vocabulary and definitions<br />
– Communication Tool between owners and<br />
contractors<br />
– Tool to Identify Potential Areas of Risk<br />

Why Update<br />
• Lacking adequate scope definition for R&R<br />
• Incomplete facility information on R&R<br />
projects<br />
• Critical needs to improve execution:<br />
– Identify existing conditions<br />
– Perform site<br />
investigation/assessment<br />
– Improve site access for front end<br />
planning
The PDRI Updates<br />
• Developed lists of unique R&R Risk issues<br />
- Safety & Environmental - Contracting<br />
- Security & Logistics - Coordination<br />
- Existing Conditions - Compatibility<br />
- Investigation Tools - Demolition<br />
• Coordinated Risk issues for Bldg & Industrial<br />
• Applied Risk issues to PDRI Element<br />
Descriptions<br />
• Additional items to consider for R&R<br />
projects
Examples of R&R Risk Issues<br />
• Modifications to meet existing or<br />
anticipated regulatory requirements<br />
• Worker & occupant safety issues,<br />
exposure, and monitoring during R&R work<br />
• Complete condition assessment of existing<br />
facilities and infrastructure<br />
• Potential reuse of existing equipment,<br />
materials, and systems<br />
• Integration of new technology with existing<br />
systems
The R&R Numbers<br />
• R&R Risk issues:<br />

B4. Design Philosophy<br />
A listing of design philosophy issues should be developed.<br />
These issues should be directed at concerns such as the<br />
following:<br />
Design life<br />
Aesthetic requirements:<br />
Theme or style [such as gothic, Victorian, or modern]<br />
Image (character of occupants or function portrayed to public by the<br />
building, i.e., welcome, power, or nature)<br />
Compatibility with master plan<br />
Environmentally sustainable design (internal/external) and level of<br />
certification, if applicable<br />
Quality of life<br />
Requirements of any adopted anti-terrorism design standards<br />
Other<br />
Additional items to consider for Renovation & Revamp projects<br />
Design impact of Renovation projects<br />
Compatibility of new Design with existing Design (equipment,<br />
egress, etc.)<br />
Match existing features and/or materials<br />
Preservation efforts – cultural & architectural<br />

Assisted Radar Tomography (CART)<br />
Ground-penetrating radar is a geophysical method that uses radar pulses to image the<br />
subsurface. This non-destructive method uses electromagnetic radiation in the microwave<br />
band of the radio spectrum, and detects the reflected signals from subsurface structures.<br />
GPR can be used in a variety of media, including rock, soil, ice, fresh water, pavements and<br />
structures. It can detect objects, changes in material, and voids and cracks.<br />
Noninvasive electromagnetic geophysical technique<br />

Integrity (Mechanical/Structural/Electrical)<br />
Cost depends on the area surveyed and surface conditions, but is typically between $0.15 to<br />
$.40 per sq ft. A good average cost is about $0.25 per square foot.<br />
Provide high quality, reliable, rapid, and easy to use solutions to subsurface investigation<br />
needs;<br />
Can be performed without interfering with buried utilities;<br />
Detects both metallic and non-metallic materials;<br />
Presents no safety hazards.<br />
Areas with extremely complex subsurface layouts can be extremely difficult to interpret<br />
properly; Sensitive to noise, i.e. interference caused by various geologic and cultural factors<br />

Ground penetrating radar waves can reach depths up to 100 feet (30 meters) in low<br />
conductivity materials such as dry sand or granite. Moist clays, shale, and other high<br />
conductivity materials, may attenuate or absorb GPR signals, greatly decreasing the depth<br />
of penetration to 3 feet (1 meter) or less.<br />
Computer-assisted radar tomography (CART) is a new type of ground-penetrating imaging<br />
radar that can detect and differentiate buried metallic and non-metallic objects and rapidly<br />
generates high-resolution 3D underground images.<br />
