SENIOR THESIS E-STUDIO

 

 

FINAL REPORT

 

FINAL REPORT

THE FINAL REPORT INCLDUES A STRUCTURAL DEPTH, ARCHITECTURAL BREADTH AND A CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT BREADTH. THE STRUCTURAL DETPTH ENCOMPASSES A REDESIGN OF THE ORIGNAL LATERAL RESISTING SYSTEM AND A DESIGN TO MITIGATE THE RISK OF PROGRESSIVE COLLAPSE. THE ARCHITECTURAL BREADTH COVERED REDESIGNING THE SITE TO PREVENT AN ATTACK. TO VIEW THE REPORT CLICK ON THE IMAGE TO THE RIGHT.

TO MEET THE MAE REQUIREMENTS FOR THIS PROJECT I COMPLETED SEVERAL PARTS RELATIVE TO THE COURSES I COMPLETED. ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO SPECIFIC SECTION IN THE REPORT DEDICATED TO THESE REQUIREMENTS I HAVE LISTED THEM BELOW:

MAE REQUIREMENTS WITHIN FINAL REPORT

- COMPUTER MODELING AE 597: COMPLETED A RAM MODEL WHICH I USED FOR GRAVITY AND LATERAL ANALYSIS

- STEEL CONNECTIONS AE 534: DESIGNED TWO DIFFERENT MOMENT CONNECTIONS AND COMPARED COST ADVANTAGES/ DISADVANTAGES OF SEVERAL OTHERS

- SEISMIC DESIGN AE 538: DESIGNED MOMENT FRAMES TO MEET ASCE 7-05 SEISMIC PROVISIONS

 

 

 

FINAL REPORT

 

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 Christopher Ankeny. 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.
