12、pril 1982)A manual or report in this series consists of an orderly presentation of facts on a particular subject, supplemented by an analysis of limitations and applications of these facts. It contains information useful to the average engineer in his or her everyday work, rather than fi ndings that

13、 may be useful only occasionally or rarely. It is not in any sense a “stan-dard,” however; nor is it so elementary or so conclusive as to provide a “rule of thumb” for nonengineers.Furthermore, material in this series, in distinction from a paper (which expresses only one persons observations or opi

14、nions), is the work of a committee or group selected to assemble and express information on a specifi c topic. As often as practicable, the committee is under the direction of one or more of the Technical Divisions and Councils, and the product evolved has been subjected to review by the Executive C

15、ommittee of the Division or Council. As a step in the process of this review, proposed manuscripts are often brought before the members of the Technical Divisions and Councils for comment, which may serve as the basis for improvement. When published, each work shows the names of the com-mittees by w

16、hich it was compiled and indicates clearly the several pro-cesses through which it has passed in review in order that its merit may be defi nitely understood.In February 1962 (and revised in April 1982) the Board of Direction voted to establish a series titled, “Manuals and Reports on Engineering Pr

17、actice,” to include the Manuals published and authorized to date, future Manuals of Professional Practice, and Reports on Engineering Practice. All such Manual or Report material of the Society would have been ref-ereed in a manner approved by the Board Committee on Publications and would be bound,

18、with applicable discussion, in books similar to past Manuals. Numbering would be consecutive and would be a continuation of present Manual numbers. In some cases of reports of joint committees, bypassing of Journal publications may be authorized.MANUALS AND REPORTS ON ENGINEERING PRACTICE CURRENTLY

38、TLY ASKED QUESTIONS 75GLOSSARY . 81INDEX 91viiThis page intentionally left blank FOREWORDThe American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) has been concerned with procedures for engaging engineering services since the early 1900s. The fi rst ASCE manual on the subject was published in 1930. The designa

39、-tion Manual No. 45A Guide for the Engagement of Engineering Services (“the manual”) was adopted in 1964, with revisions issued in 1972, 1975, 1981, 1988, 1996, and 2002. This manual is the 2011 edition. It has been renamed How to Select and Work Effectively with Consulting Engineers: Getting the Be

40、st Project.This manual is intended to outline the functions of the consulting engi-neer in serving a project owner or other engineering services client, explain the services usually offered, provide methods of determining compensation for engineering services, and provide historical infor mation on

41、the remuneration received by consulting engineers for their services. A recommended procedure for interviewing and selecting a consulting engineer and guidance on contracts for engineering services are provided. This work is designed to serve the best interests of both the owner and the consulting e

42、ngineer and to foster better understanding between them. The information offered is intended to apply to civil engineering practice and civil works projects; however, certain aspects of this manual may not be applicable to specialty practice.The ASCE Task Committee for the Update of Manual 45 (“Task

43、 Com-mittee”) began the update process by surveying users of the 2002 edition of the manual and prospective users. The survey responders evaluated the 2002 edition of the manual and provided suggestions for improve-ment. The Task Committee evaluated the results of the survey and used the results to

44、prepare this new edition. Survey questionnaires were pre-pared by the Task Committee and were sent in early 2008 and again in late 2009 to consulting engineering fi rms and major owners whose assis-tance was requested to provide recent completed project data. Responses ixx FOREWORDwere received from

45、 more than 360 fi rms and agencies. The Task Commit-tee evaluated the results of the data in preparing this edition.This edition omits the “fee curves” that were included in previous edi-tions. While the previous fee curves were based on historical data col-lected and were meant to provide a frame o

46、f reference, they were sometimes used inappropriately to dictate the percentage fee. In lieu of the curves, the Task Committee has included plots of actual fee data obtained from recent surveys to give a visual sense of fees, but at the same time demonstrate the scatter in values due to the fact tha

47、t each project is unique.The Task Committee gratefully acknowledges those fi rms, agencies, and individuals that contributed their time and talent to make the revised manual better able to serve the public, clients, owners, and the profession.1CHAPTER 1THE PRACTICE OF ENGINEERINGOver the next decade

Delaying infrastructure improvements until systems fail will result in even greater costs. ASCE is dedicated to advancing the highest standar
