structure that bear little resemblance to reality.Unfortunately, the construction of a computational model is typically one of the first tasks ayoung engineer is asked to perform. In order to address this issue, the authors are constructing aseries of experimental and analytical laboratory exercises which challenge the student‟sconfidence in computer results. In the current work, forced vibration tests of the building areperformed to obtain both the natural frequencies and the resulting mode shapes. In this paper,the procedure to experimentally determine the mode shapes is described. The student predictionsof the building response before and after experiencing the ambient and forced vibrationlaboratories are then examined. One might think that

The conventional lecture format wasreplaced with a case-study methodology that utilized existing big-box stores, all from the sameretail chain, as a “real-world” laboratory. This provided a format for students to document andanalyze an existing structural system in the context of actual gravity and environmental loadconditions. The students were then required to “reverse engineer” the structural components todetermine the actual member sizes utilized in their case study building.

To minimize heat loss, students added more insulation; and to increaseheat gain, students increased the size of south-facing glass. In the end, the thermal balancebetween heat gain and heat loss determined the appropriate size of south-facing glass needed forthe critical case scenario. The critical case scenario is typically

Desk crits or short-term consultations don’t offerthe level of shared responsibility or peer critique and learning that a multi-year collaborationdemands. We wanted our students to gain from the depth and rigor that would come from a full-semester project.Such full commitments between disciplines are rare in academic settings. While
