Welcome to Chad's AE Senior Thesis e-Portfolio
Thesis Proposal
I propose to research 4 topics for my thesis presentation.
The topics are the replacement of the specified reinforced fill system,
the changing of the double pane glass to triple pane glass, the substitution
of Ridgid's Pro-Press fittings on the domestic water piping system, and
identifying challenges involved with LEED documentation. Through my research
I hope to find ways to decrease the cost of the project, decrease the schedule
and improve constructability.
