controlled by different parties due to contractual arrangements. For a traditional project delivery model — where the client directly engages a designer to undertake detailed design — the project safety decisions during the design stage are the result of collaboration between the designer and the client. However, in a design and construct or a collaborative project delivery model, the primary collaboration will be between the constructor and the client, with participation of the designer subject to the terms of their engagement.
Figures 2A-E show some of the often complex arrangements established for construction projects, and how the parties can consult, co-operate and co-ordinate with each other in relation to safe design.
Note: A construction project is a project where the cost of the construction work is $250 000 or more. There can only be one principal contractor for a construction project.  The client may appoint the Construction Manager or one of the contractors as the Principal Contractor depending on who will have management and control of the workplace.

Figure 2a This model represents design and build arrangements where all parties are contractually bound

Figure 2b This model may apply where design and construction are carried out separately,
for example when a client is seeking to finance construction at a later date

Figure 2c This model may apply where the design and construction activities are integrated such as a domestic residence or apartment complex

Figure 2d This model may apply to a complex construction project such as a hospital or airport terminal where specialist contractors carry out large parts of the project

Figure 2e This model may apply to large construction projects where the management role
is carried out by a specialist construction manager
