Welcome to Ryan DeJesso's senior thesis website. This website will be used to monitor the status of Ryan's thesis project throughout the course of the spring and fall semesters of the 2015-2016 academic year. Ryan will be analyzing and looking for creative construction improvements for the Stanton Elementary School construction project in Washington D.C. 

The Capstone Project Electronic Portfolio (CPEP) is a web‐based project and information center. It contains material produced for a year‐long Senior Thesis class. Its purpose, in addition to providing central storage of individual assignments, is to foster communication and collaboration between student, faculty consultant, course instructors, and industry consultants. This website is dedicated to the research and analysis conducted via guidelines provided by the Department of Architectural Engineering. For an explanation of this capstone design course and its requirements click here.

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‐inprogress for this thesis project. Modifications and changes related to the original building designs andconstruction methodologies for this senior thesis project are solely the interpretation of Brian Bernens. 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.
