THESIS PROPOSAL
Depth
Work: Lighting/Electrical
The lighting systems in the four spaces designated in the 'Lighting
Proposal Memo' will be redesigned according to the design criteria
developed throughout the semester. Lighting specifications and
layout drawings will be produced to convey the design of the new lighting
systems. Calculations and computer generated renderings will be
produced to further convey the effectiveness and appearance of the new
lighting systems.
A specific
portion of the power distribution system will be selected to be redesigned
based on the findings of the 'Electrical Systems Existing Conditions and
Building Load Summary Report'. Changes to the system layout will be
suggested and benefits of these changes will be examined. Changes to
building loads based on changes to the system layout will be calculated
and appropriate system components will be re-sized. One mechanical
motor control center will also be analyzed and redesigned appropriately.
Breadth Work A:
Structural
In the lighting depth work a skylight/light-shelf system will be added to
the instrumental rehearsal room and any structural framing impacted by
this change will be analyzed and redesigned.
Breadth Work B:
Acoustics
Architectural features, material selection, and HVAC ductwork will be
analyzed in both the Recital Hall and the Instrumental Rehearsal space and
changes to any or all of these variables will be suggested in order to
achieve more desirable acoustic conditions.

Please Note: While great efforts have been taken to provide accurate and
complete information on the pages of this CPEP, please be aware that the
information contained herewith is considered a work-in-progress for this
thesis project. Modifications and changes related to the original
building designs and construction methodologies for this senior thesis
project are solely the interpretation of Benjamin Hagan. Changes and
discrepancies in no way imply that the original design contained errors or
was flawed. Differing assumptions, code references, requirements, and
methodologies have been incorporated into this thesis project; therefore,
investigation results may vary from the original design.
