Medical Office BuildingWelcome to the Capstone Project e-Portfolio (CPEP) for Brendon J. Burley. This page will be updated throughout the 2004-2005 academic year of The Pennsylvania State University to reflect my progress in the investigation and evaluation of the design of the Medical Office Building in Malvern, PA as part of the graduation requirements of the Architectural Engineering program. This website is dedicated to the research and analysis conducted via the guidelines provided by the Department of Architectural Engineering The files on this page are published using Adobe Acrobat.

THESIS EXPERIENCEThe AE senior thesis is a culminating project in the Architectural Engineering Program at The Pennsylvania State University. This project pulls together the subjects studied over the past four years and asks students to apply their knowledge in both their area of specialty, as well as two areas of breadth in which they are not specialized. The course is set up to guide students in the process of a professional design evaluation which will lead to a new proposal for value engineering in the building. Although the course has a schedule and deadlines, the individual projects vary significantly. None of the coursework is done through lecture and each student is individually responsible for their own schedule and progress. For more information please look at the department's official Thesis Experience webpage. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTSI wish to extend my thanks to the following people for their assistance in sponsoring and supporting my work.
Note: While great efforts have been taken to provide accurate and complete information on the pages of this 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 Brendon J. Burley. 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. |
