Zusammenfassung:Since the early 1990s, the design-build program at Virginia Tech's Washington-Alexandria Architecture Center (WAAC) has introduced the idea of prudence into architecture students' education. The primary vehicle for this undertaking has been the WAAC building itself, a load-bearing brick and timber structure built in the early 20th century in Alexandria, Virginia. Here, design-build projects are all, in some way, permanent modifications to the building or its immediate landscape.
