Application Study Of Design-Build General Contract Bidding Mode For Residential Pile Foundation Project

Design-Build General Contract Bidding Mode is a kind of project contract and bidding launch mode, it joints Design-Build General Contract mode and project bidding launch mode, In this mode, only one sole contractor will be chosen by inviting public bidding. According to the contract promise of the selected sole contractor , the sole contractor will finish all works such as engineer,purchase,construction, meanwhile, will be responsible for the project quality,safety and time limit. The Design-Build General Contract Bidding Mode could be either EPC style(Engineering-Procurement-Construction) or DB style(Design-Build).Project general contract mode is widely used in deciding on and executing for project construction all over the world. In china, it shall be actively propagandized because it is the important measure for project construction to deepen the reform of deciding on and execute, improve the managing level, guarantee engineering quality, economize the investment and to standardize construction market order; It is the certain request for prospecting,design,construction and management company to adjust management framework, enhance comprehensive strength, catch up with the world project contract and management mode and to acclimatize itself to the development of socialism market economy; it is also the effective way to implement the "going out" development strategy of the Seventeenth Congress of the CPC, actively exploit international contract market, arouse export of our technique,electromechanical equipment and engineering material, improve labor export and to improve the company's international competence.Design-Build General Contract Bidding Mode is better for the owner to control project quality,investment and time limit. The advantage is as follows:Design-Build General Contract Bidding Mode is already widely used in overseas construction projects. And it is being extended in domestic projects. In Mar. 2003, Department of Construction printed and distributed《the Guidance of Developing Project General Contract and Project Manage Company》(No.30 file [2003]),in Nov. 2004, printed and distributed《the Trial Law of Construction Project Management》.In Dec. 2006, Department of Transportation issued information about《Starting Experimental Work of Transportation Project General Contract》,the experimental work of Transportation Project D-B General Contract was first commenced in Guangdong,Hebei,Fujian,sanxi provinces and Beijing city, by these files were published one after the other, it marks that Project General Contract in China began to enter a new developing history era.Pile foundation project is one of the important partial projects of structure, it has a big influence on project investment,quality,safety and time limit. for the existence of many uncertain factors such as geological condition,construction environment condition design technique and construction technique, the design and construction risk is bigger, D-B general contract mode is seldom used in pile foundation construction area, usually, the design and construction are finished by different contractors, construction after design, the risk is lower, but it's not good for the owner to control the project investment,quality and time limit, especially investment. For large area-developed residential project, meanwhile, if the pile foundation engineering is ready to be contracted by professional piling company, it's better to send bid by using the D-B general contract bidding mode, thus the owner can control the project investment quality and time limit easier.In this article, the writer will study the application of Design-Build General Contract Bidding Mode for residential pile foundation project, and analyze its influence upon project investment quality and time limit,existing risk and the measures to avoid it, save the investment extremely,shorten the time limit on the premise of ensure the quality and safety of the project, achieve the project goal, developing the application of Design-Build General Contract Bidding Mode in civil projects.
