Summary
My thesis abstract is a one page overview of the engineering systems and
buliding features of the Landscape Building at Janelia Farm. Janelia is
currently in it's third year of construction in Ashburn, VA. It was designed
for Howard Hughes Medical Institute to be a world-class medical reserch
facility to promote unrestrained medical research. For a more detailed description,
please see the Building Statistis Report.
User Note:
Note: While great efforts have been taken to provide accurate and complete information on the pages of 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 Julia Thorpe. 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.
