Welcome to Josh Jaskowiak's Senior Thesis Website
To fullfil the graduation requirements of Penn State's Bachelor and Master of Architectural Engineering in the Structures Option and the requirements of the Penn State Schreyer Honors College, I am participating in the traditional AE thesis project. For my thesis project, I am completing an analysis of the LiUNA Headquarters Renovation and Addition, with a focus on the structural analysis and redesign of the building addition. Many thanks to Dr. Thomas Boothby, my senior thesis advisor, and the entire AE staff and faculty for their help with this endevor.
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 Josh Jaskowiak. 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.
