Final Report

The final senior thesis report provided below is the culmination of a year long effort to study all aspects of Landis Run Intermediate and provide suggestions on how the construction and design could have been improved. The report below discusses four analyses conducted on the project as well as two breadth studies, which are intended to demonstrate the breadth of knowledge in areas other than construction that the author has obtained throughout his five years of study in the field of Architectural Engineering. The executive summary provided at the bottom of the page summaries the findings of the analyses.

Modifications and changes related to the original building designs and construction methodologies for this senior thesis project are solely the interpretation of Matthew Stevenson. 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.
