American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 Large-Scale Timber Shear Wall Experimentation in an Undergraduate Design CourseAbstractDespite the widespread use of light-frame timber construction in residential building, wooddesign courses are typically offered to graduate students and focus on member-level calculationsfor gravity and lateral systems per the National Design Specification (NDS) for WoodConstruction. In years prior, the 10-week advanced undergraduate class described in this paperexposed students through a system-level perspective through a group design project of a multi-story, mixed-use wood building located in a seismic region. A significant course

The following sections provide some background about the overall project along with thedesign and implementation of the experiential learning modules. There is also a brief discussionabout assessment efforts on the project and lessons learned by the project team.Project Background The project as a whole includes several experiential learning modules covering fourcourses: structural analysis, reinforced concrete, steel design, and geotechnical engineering (soilmechanics and foundations) as described by Carroll et al. [1]. This paper is the third in a seriesand focuses on the design and implementation
apply prerequisite knowledge from statics, mechanics ofmaterials, civil engineering materials, and structural analysis. Instructors often use illustrations,small demonstrations, or videos to illustrate different failure modes and emphasize fundamentalbehavior. However, students rarely have the opportunity to experience full-scale behaviorfirsthand. Testing large scale members requires specialized equipment, and many engineeringprograms do not have access to the necessary facilities or resources to incorporate full-scaletesting into the undergraduate classroom. As a part of a multi-course, experiential learning project, St. Louis University (SLU) andRose-Hulman Institute of Technology (RHIT) have developed three full-scale

One aspect of the project is the “Visualizing Mechanics” section of thewebsite. The visualizations seem to be largely videos that focus on experimental (andcomputational) concept demonstration [13].In 2020, technology companies (Microsoft, Apple, etc.) removed Flash from web browsercapabilities, rendering it obsolete

It is not surprising that KLC has been appliedin civil engineering [3-5], mechanical engineering [5], chemical engineering [3, 4, 6], aeronauticalengineering [5], industrial engineering [7], and manufacturing engineering [3, 4, 8].This work addresses a small laboratory project. Project based learning (PBL), as a part ofexperiential learning, is also well-researched [10-12]. In addition, since students work in pairs, PLis implemented. PL methods are well described and justified in education and psychology literature[13-17]. In engineering education, PL is applied in

activities are essentially nolonger possible. Mechanical Engineering Design (i.e., Machine Design) at California StateUniversity Chico normally facilitates a semester-long design and fabrication project to givestudents a real-world engineering experience. As an alternative, this paper considers theeffectiveness and benefit of focusing on the documentation and presentation of engineeringanalysis and design work rather than hands-on projects. In a series of activity assignments,students are required to compose short technical reports which document their engineeringanalysis in professional form. Each subsequent assignment had an increased level of analysiscomplexity and documentation which related to the course material. A mid-semester survey
