Biography - Brian Ault

Brian is currently a 5th year Architectural Engineering student focusing on the Mechanical Option.  Brian will graduate in December 2008 with his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Architectural Engineering.  He is also considering continuing his studies at Penn State for his PhD in AE as well.  He graduated from Tuscarawas Valley High School in 2003.

He has been heavily involved in the Penn State Solar Decathlon, serving as the Mechanical Team leader for just over a year, after which he moved to construction and commissioning of systems in the home.  He also has experience from summer internships at Mercy Medical Center with the Plant & Engineering staff.  Brian has been the treasurer of the Student Red Cross Club since March 2004, and plans to continue his leadership role.

Brian received his Eagle Scout rank in March of 2000.  He also passed the FE exam in April of 2007, and will be an Engineer in Training upon graduation.  After graduation, he will be pursuing a career in HVAC design or design-build firms, and looks forward to Professional Engineer licensure.

Resume

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 Brian Ault. 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.
  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.
