500 Ray C. Hunt Drive

This Penn State Senior Thesis was an opportunity to demonstrate the education and experience gathered over the last 5 years studying Architectural Engineering. Over the course of the 2016-2017 academic year, the 500 Ray C. Hunt Drive Renovation project was analyzed in order to find areas in which the construction process, various systems, and key components could be optimized in a way that would contribute to the team, the owner, and the construction industry. The Fall semester focused on the existing circumstances of the structure and project, while the Spring semester allowed for redesign and evaluation opportunities in the project.
