This paper presents the implementation of a peer-review cycleinto the team course project in both a junior-level structural analysis course and a senior-levelcapstone civil engineering design course. The peer review process asks students to evaluate andprovide feedback on both the analytical content as well as the written presentation of the project.This process allows students to see different approaches to the same problem. Their familiaritywith the problem allows them to provide constructive feedback, while reviewing the work ofanother group allows them an objectivity they cannot yet apply to their own work. The peerreview cycle not only enhances the learning of the material

Design is generally constrained by nature,cost, safety, reliability, etc. and the role of these constraints varies based on the context of thedesign project as well as the objectives of the design prompt. The identification and evaluation ofthese constraints differentiates design from conventional optimization when determining orselecting a solution and is an important aspect in studying how solutions evolve throughout thedesign process. Through an observational study of 4 design teams within the context of a coursedesign project, we differentiate and describe constraints imposed by the design project and
