SUMMARY:Delivering the Brooklyn Borough-Based Jail: Design-Build at Scale in NYC
DESCRIPTION:In 2018\, the New York State Legislature passed a bill authorizing the New York City Department of Design and Construction (DDC) to use design-build for the first time to construct the Borough-Based Jails program (BBJ). The authorization became a key tool in meeting the policy mandate to replace Riker’s Island with smaller\, safer\, fairer detention facilities in the boroughs\, closer to communities and the courts. DDC and program management partner AECOM-Hill JV immediately set to work creating a new design-build capital delivery program for the Borough-Based Jails that is transforming how the City delivers capital projects. By the end of 2025\, DDC was well underway on the nation’s largest public vertical design-build program: completing five BBJ early works projects on time and on budget\, earning the Design-Build Institute of America 2024 I.N.S.P.I.R.E.D. Owner of the Year Award and National Award of Excellence for the Queens Municipal Garage and Community Facility\, and awarding design-build contracts for all four new jail facilities. The first contract to be awarded\, the new Brooklyn Facility on Atlantic Avenue is currently under construction by design-build team Tutor Perini and HOK\, with the Phase 2 design completion and construction approved in November 2024 and structure already erected to twelve stories. This session will explore how the Brooklyn jail team is leveraging design-build collaboration to deliver design excellence\, on-the-ground problem solving to address the needs of the Department of Correction and other vital jail services\, and real-time cost and schedule management to meet the ambitious goals of the Borough-Based Jails program. A presentation on the project’s design and delivery approach will be followed by a moderated discussion examining how design-build is performing at each stage\, and the lessons DDC is bringing back to its larger capital program. \nRegister Now \nSpeakers: \n\nEduardo del Valle\, AIA\, DBIA\, LEED AP\, Acting Commissioner\, NYC DDC\nBeverly Prior\, FAIA\, NCARB\, DBIA\, LEED AP\, Vice President\, Senior Program Manager\, AECOM\nCarl Galioto\, FAIA\, President\, HOK\nModerator: Becky Yurek\, AIA\, Chief Strategy Officer\, NYC DDC\n\n\n\n\nPrice:\n\nIn-Person – AIANY Member: Free\nIn-Person – Student with Valid ID: Free\nIn-Person – General Public: $15\n\n  \n\nBenefactor

SUMMARY:First-of-a-Kind: PANYNJ Leverages Unique Investigate-Design-Build Delivery to Restore Salt Damage at World Trade Center
DESCRIPTION:During construction of the new World Trade Center (WTC) in 2012\, Hurricane Sandy inundated the worksite with 200M gallons of brackish water. The water was rapidly removed\, but the salt remained embedded\, causing damage across the iconic structure’s first decade of service life. The saltwater caused corrosion and service life reduction along the lowest levels of WTC approximately 70 feet below grade. \nBeginning in 2021\, the Port Authority of New York New Jersey (PANYNJ) embarked on a multi-year project aimed at remediating the damage and restoring structural capacity for WTC’s intended 100-year service life.  Based upon the varied extent-of-damage conditions which drove the need for extensive investigation as a first step\, PANYNJ’s desire for cost certainty and need to manage schedule constraints in a complex working environment\, design-build delivery was selected. \nFour Learning Objectives: \n\nDiscover the Owner’s evaluation of delivery methods process\, and analyze the decision criteria for use of design-build using the WTC project for reference\nTranslate PANYNJ’s extensive experience related to Design-Build for new construction of world class facilities into how to effectively manage and deliver Design-Build for rehabilitation projects\nAssess the risks presented on repair projects and how they are managed through strategic use of contingencies and allowances\, specifically for portions of scope that have variable quantities and potential scope changes based on variability or as-found conditions.\nAcquire knowledge regarding the benefits of Design-Build delivery to develop solutions and execute repair and restoration of existing structures.\n\nParticipants will be eligible for 1.5 DBIA credits. \n________________________________________________________________________________________________ \nRegistration Now\nAbout our Presenters \n \nJeff Binder\, DBIA | Director of Preconstruction\, Structural \nJeff Binder is Director of Preconstruction for STRUCTURAL with over 17 years of experience in the repair and restoration of concrete structures.
