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 Carmen Brutico. 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.”

Reflections:

Senior Thesis
Senior thesis allowed me to use the knowledge and tools gathered throughout my years in the Architectural Engineering program on my own and at my own pace. I learned to set my goals and milestones along to way in order to keep on task with my theis research. Through the discussion board I was able to reach out and contact industry professionals to harness some of their experience and knowledge.

CPEP
The Cpep site was a way for myself and others to track my progress throughout the eight months of senior thesis. This was an easy way for others to see what I have done and hopefully learn a few things from my work. Along the way it was updated with the current progress of my work with a helpful news and updates announcements section on the homepage. My senior thesis work is all located in one simple website for all to access.
