Scott Rabold - Architectural Engineering

WELCOME-

The senior design thesis is a comprehensive design project that was developed to challenge the abilities of fifth-year Penn State AE students and prepare them for professional careers. The project spans two full semesters and my progress will be documented on this Capstone Project Electronic Portfolio.

I'd like to thank everyone who has provided me with assistance from GPI Inc., RMJM Hillier, and the NYC HHC. Please feel free to periodically visit this website as it will be updated throughout the course of the year.

The Capstone Project Electronic Portfolio (CPEP) is a web‐based project and information center. It contains material produced for a year‐long Senior Thesis class. Its purpose, in addition to providing central storage of individual assignments, is to foster communication and collaboration between student, faculty consultant, course instructors, and industry consultants. This website is dedicated to the research and analysis conducted via guidelines provided by the Department of Architectural Engineering.

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 Scott Rabold. 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
