Thesis Research

sssssss

In the preparation of preparing to undertake the assesments necessary to analyze a geothermal implimentation of the Gaige Building, the following resources helped to understand how to performan the analysis. Also, the following resources helped to determine how succes could be measured for the system. As well, resources for the acoustics and contruction breadths for this thesis are provided as well.

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 isconsidered 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 Matthew Neal. 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.
