Who we are

The Construction Contract Administration Knowledge Community (CCA) has been established to help our members better understand the issues, actions and resultant impact of the decisions required in this often neglected part of Project Delivery. It is our goal to provide clear answers to issues of concern to the Institute’s membership and share case studies and best practices. We further hope to provide guidance and direction in developing guidelines for new and evolving approaches to Project Delivery as well as guidance in the continuing education of our emerging young professionals.

    The proposed 2012 IBC will include changes regarding fire-resistant penetrations and independent inspections of  firestopping. Architect should be familiar with ASTM E 2174 and E 2393.

    This may be a response to  data showing FM/UL contractors have a 94% accuracy rate, while trade contractors have a 30%, of correctly installing firestopping.
