BIO:

 

Rachel Herrington is a 5th year Architectural Engineering student with a focus in construction management at Penn State University. She will graduate in May 2016  with a Bachelor's of Architectural Engineering and then graduate in December 2016 with a Master’s of Architectural Engineering. In the summer of 2016, Rachel will return to intern with Limbach Construction as a operations intern.

 

During her time at Penn State, Rachel was a member of the Student Society of Architectural Engineers(SSAE), Women in Engineering Program(WEP), and National Association of Home Builders(NAHB) to name a few. Alongside the multitude of clubs she was in, Rachel also took time to facilitate younger students for calculus through WEP in which she gained precious experience as a leader. In terms of construction experience, Rachel has had an internship with general contractor, PJ Dick and specialty contractor, Limbach Construction. Both these internships allowed her to obtain more field work and office work experience through different trait sets. During the duration of the interdisciplinary design process for the AEI student design competition, Rachel could be found most often twirling and dancing, sleeping with her beloved ostrich pillow in the hammock, and munching on sunflower seeds.

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 and construction methodologies for this senior thesis project are solely the interpretation of Subsidium. 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.
