AE 481W/482 Course Reflection

AE 481W and AE 482 were very valuable courses for further understanding the building construction industry. AE 481W allowed to further develop our knowledge of our thesis building. While on the other hand, AE 482 allowed us to work on subject specific to our interest. I was able to interview many high profile Integrated Project Delivery individuals. I also gained a valuable respect for emergency power generation systems.

CPEP & Discussion Board Reflection

The CPEP is an excellent tool for the organization and viewing of our thesis material. It was very beneficial to see what other classmates were working on. It also allowed us to view previous AE students work. The knowledge in creating a website is a very powerful trait to have.

The discussion board was helpful in understanding what concerns other student were having. Having access to industry professionals was no only beneficial in this project, but also for furthering my career.

   

 

 

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 Brett Robinson. 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.
