APPENDIX B
CSI Division List—1995 Version
This appendix provides a complete breakdown for each of the CSI Divisions to Level 3 to support the discussion of the use of the CSI structure in Chapter 9.1 As discussed in Chapter 9, this structure is not a WBS, but a complete formal checklist of the construction elements within each summary CSI Division. This structure can form the basis for a WBS by selecting the appropriate CSI elements when developing the WBS for a construction project.
The structure of the Division List is presented graphically in Figure B-1. The CSI MasterFormat™ Division List online presents this information as a listing with each lower level accessed by clicking on the Division item, such as “02200 Site Preparation” shown in the figure.2 Five levels of decomposition are presented.
It should be noted that not all elements have Level 4 or 5 breakdowns.
FIGURE B-1 CSI Division Structure
Note that the first Division, identified as “Division 0,” is not actually identified on the webpage as “Division 0;” the first group has no heading, and the activities are not actual construction activities. However, further decompositions of each of these Division 0 items are available when the element is selected.
As an example of a typical decomposition, the complete breakdown of “02200 Site Preparation” is included at the end of the basic Division List that follows.3
