Brawn and brains required - By Anya Sostek, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
The showcase event of the carpenters' contest is a collaborative "design-build" competition started six years ago in partnerships with the Pittsburgh Young Architects and the Master Builders Association.
The three person teams consist of one carpenter apprentice, one architect and one contractor. Two weeks before the competition, participants are given their task -- this year to construct a Disney-themed playhouse -- and the architect starts drawing up plans while the contractor gathers supplies in accordance with the predetermined budget.------------------------------------------- posted 9:44 AM :: reference link ::
