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 Shawn Pepple. 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.
 
 

     
 

Technical Assignments

Technical Assignment #1
This tech assignment details several construction management topics of the Redland Technology Center. It includes summaries of the project schedule and building systems, project cost evaluation, existing conditions, and other construction management issues.

Technical Assignment #2
This tech assignment includes a detailed project schedule, site layout plans for each major phase of costruction, a detailed strutural systems estimate, a general conditions estimate, and a summary of the 2008 PACE Roundtable Conference.

Technical Assignment #3
This tech assignment includes the results from an interview with the project manager of the Redland Tech project on the topics of constructability challenges, schedule acceleration scenarios, and value engineering. Also, this report inclues problems and issues that I've observed on the project and I've identified 4 construction management topics that I may pursue for my AE Senior Thesis research.
