The final report and presentation for this project summarize the total work done for the semester in the redesign of the Institute for Medical Research.  The report discusses the redesigned lighting for 4 main spaces in the building, an electrical depth that analyzes the potential for a photovoltaic array, as well as a branch circuit redesign.  Two breadth topics which support the redesign of the roof for the photovoltaic array and rooftop terrace are an architectural breadth and a structural breadth.  

 

Because of time limitations for the final presentation, only two of the redesigned spaces for the lighting are included, the photovoltic array portion of the electrical depth is discussed, and both breadth topics for the roof were included.  A PowerPoint can be downloaded, or a PDF version can be viewed using the links below.
