Never can be eliminated
Hi @ngolban welcome to the ARE Community!
@clifford.marvin yes it can! If all you know is that the architect provides estimates at some point, you can eliminate ‘never’ and guess between the remaining 3.
A note for everyone who may not know about this (relating to Strikeout):
If you triple click on text, or the text of one of the answer options, it’ll highlight the entire paragraph (entire answer). This makes it a lot quicker to select the entire answer and then hit Strikeout (or highlight).
thanks I missed that first portion!
choice d is too vague…I would have eliminated it
I like as an additional service
I see the answer is Supplemental, but on the short AIA form, you can itemize “additional services.”
@clifford.marvin Darion is going to get to that shortly - the different between supplemental and additional is important!
“if identified” is what is throwing me
thank you! now I understand the difference!
this one completely baffled me
this question threw me
@matt2 this is another question type that architects studying for the ARE probably don’t do a whole lot of in their day jobs, so I can understand the confusion. I hope Darion going through it right now is helpful!!
I guessed how to do this correctly
Nice!!
You have to assume the costs listed in the question are per square foot. Will NCARB include that?
@clifford.marvin if they do, you should use your knowledge of material cost estimating to correctly assume that they’re talking about a cost per square foot for EIFS.
Another reason you can eliminate d is that if all the bids exceed the cost of work estimate, then the Contractors DID adjust their bids.
