Transcript | Constructing lives SCRI "To give the students in the College of Technology a place to network and compete with other schools in construction management." The University of Houston Students in Construction Related Industries (SCRI) recently competed in a construction management competition, held in conjunction with the National Association of Home Builders Convention in Las Vegas. The competition was sponsored by Wayne Homes and was designed to give construction management students the opportunity to apply the skills learned in the classroom to a real construction project provided by Centex Homes. The six student team, Tommy Uzick, Claire Ivy, Victor Elizondo, Gordon Miller, Carmen Lippold, and Avi Elfezouaty, worked on a management proposal for a real 174 unit residential housing project by completing an estimate, schedule cash flow forecast, and other essential elements of the proposal. The proposal was then submitted to a group of construction company executives who judged both proposal and presentation. This was the the very first year that the University of Houston took part in the competition. It would not have taken place if it had not been for the financial support supplied from many of the builders in the Houston area. SCRI managed to do work a little closer to home, too. They were instrumental in repairing the Human Development Lab Playground. They demolished the unsafe existing structures, replaced safety railings, hauled off rotten material and cleaned the area. SCRI looked forward to further assisting in construction matters on this campus. -SCRI Victor Elizondo, Mike Spulock Jimmy Pratt Jim Hobberchalk, Andy Huang, Fred Lucille, Seth Sanders, Claire Ivy, Eric Faircloth, Deel Sceklmski, Joe Soukup, John Moore.
