AE 481W/482 Course Reflection & CPEP & Discussion Board Reflection

AE 481/482 (Senior Thesis) is an intensive capstone project that requires each students to interact with both industry professionals and project teams. The experience gained from completing this project is what sets the Penn State A/E program apart from the rest. I feel that the experience and knowledge gained from this project will better prepare me for the AEC industry.

The CPEP website was a great way to share my project's information with industry experts. It also served as a way to keep family, friends and professionals up to date on my progress. The discussion board was a great way to get answers to difficult questions quickly.

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 consultants, course instructors, and industry consultants. This website is dedicated to the research and analysis conducted via guidelines rovided by the Department of Architectural Engineering. For an explanation of this capstone design course and its requiremtns click me.

"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 Dan Weiger. 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."
