Preconstruction Tools

Over our 42 years of experience, Shaeffer Hyde Construction has developed a solid system of
preconstruction services and preconstruction tools. Our preconstruction tools provide information
that is accurate and timely to support the design of the project and ultimately set the project up
for success. We have included examples of several of the following preconstruction project tools:
System Analysis - To assist the team in making the critical design decisions during the design
development phase, Shaeffer Hyde provides systems analysis that clearly break down the costs,
schedule and construction implications associated with each potential system as well as provide
pros and cons associated. A few of the system analysis that we have performed are: renewable
energy studies, roofing material options, and stone type options.
Estimate Packages - Shaeffer Hyde provides complete fully detailed estimate packages. These
include executive level summaries of the costs as well as detailed estimate break downs by
division.
Design Purchasing Coordination Schedule - To help the entire team understand when decisions
need to be made, Shaeffer Hyde developed a Design Purchasing Coordination Schedule. This
document ties to the overall project schedule and outlines all the critical design and construction
decisions required. The decision date considers material lead times, submittal generation and
review durations, design time, bidding periods and an owner review period. The biggest benefit is
that the entire team understands which decisions are schedule dependent and which decisions
have further time to develop.
Bid Analysis - Every scope of work will be bid to a minimum of three bidders. Prior to awarding of
the contracts, Shaeffer Hyde will present bid analysis that summarize the budget for the scope of
work and the total bids of each potential trade contractor. We also will provide our experience
with each trade contractor and an assessment of their strengths and weaknesses. This enables the
team to decide based on cost as well as the intangibles of each trade contractor.

Green Building Services As a steward of the environment, Shaeffer Hyde Construction is

focused on building sustainable, energy efficient, healthy homes that are both
environmentally friendly and aesthetically pleasing. Our NAHB Certified Green Professional TM
and LEED® (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Accredited Professionals guide
our clients through the green building process as well as provide cost-benefit and life cycle
analysis of all green options. At Shaeffer Hyde Construction, we enjoy providing creative
solutions and new ideas in an effort to exceed our client's expectations. The following are
several ways Shaeffer Hyde Construction can assist the team in achieving the projects
sustainable goals:

Snowmelt / Renewable Energy Analysis - The Eagle County Efficient Building

Program Guidelines impose sizable monetary penalties for the use of snowmelt. However, they
do allow for these penalties to be offset though the incorporation of alternative energies. To
support the project, Shaeffer Hyde Construction provides cost/ benefit analysis to help the
team make the decision of how much snowmelt can be offset with renewable energy.

Eagle County Efficient Building Program Monitoring - Shaeffer Hyde Construction

tracks and documents all the points required to achieve the Efficient Building Program
(ECOBuild) standard. We assist during the design process, document the selection of materials
& physical construction installation, and facilitate the county green inspection process from
the beginning of the project through certification.

Green Design / Construction Expertise - As Shaeffer Hyde Construction has LEED®

Accredited and NAHB Certified Green Building Professional's on staff, we are able to support
the entire LEED® process from design through owner move in.

Site Specific Waste Recycling Program - On all of our projects, Shaeffer Hyde

Construction recycles as much material as possible that can be diverted from a land fill.

Green Projects & Renewable Energy - At Shaeffer Hyde Construction we have

experience in designing and building renewable energy systems for our homes. We assist our
clients with options analysis of all types of renewable energy scenarios in order to optimize the
initial cost and life cycle pay back. The following list highlights some of this experience:

Williams Residence Photovoltaic and Thermal Solar Panel System - A 4 KW

photovoltaic solar panel system, with twenty PV panels and twenty-eight thermal panels that
heats a 15,000-gallon storage tank, was installed on this project. Our experience
is that the technology is getting better while at the same time the price on the systems is
coming down. This allows for shorter paybacks periods. The Williams Residence was built to
Eagle County Efficient Building Program standards.

Sakin Residence Thermal Solar Panel System – An eighteen thermal panel solar

system that heats several storage tanks and supplies water for snow melting and radiant in
floor heat was installed. The Sakin Residence, in Basalt, Colorado, was built to the Pitkin
County Efficient Building Program standards.

Lake Creek Residence Pole Mounted Photovoltaic Solar Panel System - At

this Lake Creek Residence a 17 KW pole mounted system was designed and installed with
seventy-two panels. The Lake Creek project was built to Eagle County Efficient Building
Program standards. There were two main structures on the project; the Main House and the
Barn/ Caretaker home. We are very proud of the fact that we exceed the number of "ECO
Points" that were targeted on the Barn/ Caretaker home. As a result, the owner received a
check back from Eagle County for this accomplishment.

Ferguson Residence Thermal Solar Panel System – A twelve panel thermal solar

system was installed to assist with heating of the pool and snowmelt of the home.

GeoExchange Well System Strawberry Park Residence - A GeoExchange system

was installed with thirty-five wells that allow fluid to run through them to be heated and
cooled.

Willard Residence - As a major gut remodel, the Willard Residence was built to achieve a

LEED® Silver Certification.

King Creek Ranch - A 90,000-gallon GeoExchange system was installed to provide

supplemental heating and cooling capacity. This project is located in Routt County.

Lake Creek Residence - The following are the green elements associated:

• A 12.75 kW Solar Photovoltaic System was installed that consists of 51 highly efficient PV
panels. At times during the summer months this system will feed back energy to the
power grid.

• A GeoExchange Well System was also installed and consisted of 12 wells reaching
depths of greater than 400 feet. The GeoExchange system alone generates
182,552,563 renewable BTU/Year which offsets the BTU's used for the snowmelt system
and generates 35% of all remaining heating and cooling energy for a home with a full-
size swimming pool and air conditioning.

• 100 "Eco Points" were required by Eagle County for a home of this scale and we're
excited that we were able to far exceed the requirement and were awarded 121
points. In addition to the power generation methods noted, this home utilized many
other green/renewable building practices such as: low-flow toilets and energy star

appliances, reclaimed/recycled building materials, multiple materials were
manufactured in the state of Colorado, high efficiency boilers and high performance
insulation.

Mill Creek Property - This home is a registered LEED for Homes project striving for Silver

status. The project started by a meticulous 4-month deconstruction process in an effort to
save, reuse, recycle and donate as much material as possible to Habitat for Humanity Re
Store in Eagle, CO and minimized the amount of waste added to the land fill.

• A 12.92 kW solar photovoltaic system was installed that consists of Lumos LSX Frameless
Module panels. There is an expected 26% savings in electric purchased from the utility
company yearly. The system includes solar charged batteries for back up emergency
power.

• The Geothermal Exchange System consists of 8 wells that reach depths of greater than
400 feet. This system feeds the snowmelt systems and the cooling systems for the AV
equipment.

• In addition to the power generation methods noted, many other green/renewable
building practices were utilized such as: native landscaping/turf reduction, FSC and SFI
wood, radon mitigation system, and the workers did an exceptional job recycling all
wood, metal and cardboard waste.

Green Building Strategies The following are Green Building strategies that Shaeffer Hyde

Construction analyzes on every project that we build:

• Renewable Energy - Solar Thermal, Solar Photovoltaic, & Geo Exchange Systems are all
analyzed both from a cost and site feasibility standpoint.

• Energy Efficient Equipment - Super efficient boilers and mechanical systems.
• High Performance Insulation - We do not use traditional batt insulation. Our homes have

a baseline of blown-in insulation that encapsulates all components within the wall and
fills all the voids. In addition, we utilize the newer technology foams that allow a thinner
profile, but improved insulating qualities.
• High Performance Windows - We focus on the films that are used to provide thermal
reduction. Low E2 and a U coefficient of .28 as a starting point.
• Energy Star Appliances in all of our homes.
• Passive Solar Designs when appropriate are employed.
• Structurally Insulated Panels (SIPS Panels) - Great insulating properties and lower waste.
• Radiant Heating - The most efficient way to heat a home specifically in our cold
climate.
• LED Lighting Systems - LED lights have a very long life span and consume significantly
less energy than a traditional light bulb.
• Intelligent Thermostats throughout.
• Carbon Monoxide Detectors throughout.

• Integrated Home Energy Automation Systems - Monitors and manages energy use.
• Blower Door Testing - Ensures home is not leaking air and thus energy,
• Wood Harvested Sustainably - FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified green woods

and European wood certified by the PEFC (Program for the Endorsement of Forest
Certification) which is the world's largest forest certification system are utilized when
appropriate.
• Waste Management & Recycling - we recycle metal, cardboard, & wood.
• Low Flow or Dual Flush Plumbing Fixtures to help with water conservation.
• ERV/ Air Filtration HVAC Systems for healthy air.
• Native Landscaping - Planting / landscaping designed using native plants.
• Indigenous Materials - Majority of materials fabricated within a 500 radius.
• Engineered Lumber Systems - Reduce waste and provide a superior product.
• Low VOC Products - These products reduce Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) used
in the home during construction.
• Interesting Renewable Materials - We use Beetle Kill wood when appropriate. Beetle Kill
lumber is from standing dead lodge pole pines that are indigenous to Colorado and
that have been killed by pine beetles.
• Radon Mitigation / Under Slab Ventilation for a healthier home.
• Re-Use of Excavated Earth & Topsoil - This minimizes trucking and saves money.
• Limiting Site Disturbance - Erosion control / sediment fence installation protects the loss
of topsoil as well as reduces impacts on the adjacent spaces.
• Reusing / Donating to Habitat for Humanity – saving Money, Tax Savings, & helping
people at the same time.
