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 Christopher Nicolais. 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.

 
 
 
Presentation 

The final thesis presentation was created for a jury of faculty advisors to summarize the main aspects of this semester long engineering project. The goal is to introduce the building, discuss the current system design, and present the redesigned system with conclusions which compare the two. Also inlcuded in this presentation is the construction breadth study. An electrical breadth study was done and written into the final report, however not included in the presentation due to time constraints.
