management asset
d. The expectation of benefit from innovation stemming from
collaborative effort
e. All of the above. Answer: e. All of the above
⩥ Which of the following is TRUE concerning the application of
integrated project delivery?
a. Collaborative team effort reduces planning and design expenses.
b. Determination of liability for decisions is generally made by the team
leader in order to reduce arbitration expenses.
,c. Technologies such as data exchange protocols evolve on a phase-by-
phase basis.
d. Team culture based upon problem resolution rather than the
determination of liability.. Answer: d. Team culture based upon problem
resolution rather than the determination of liability.
⩥ The following are TRUE concerning CSI's GreenFormat online
product data resource EXCEPT:
a. CSI validates and certifies information contained in GreenFormat.
b. GreenFormat product information is organized by MasterFormat
numbers.

b. Estimates of the cumulative environmental impacts resulting from all
stages of a product life cycle over a 50-year period
c. Support for selection of products with the lowest total environmental
impact
d. Market analysis of demand for sustainable products. Answer: d.
Market analysis of demand for sustainable products -
Market analysis of demand is a separate discipline outside of the
