furthest tocompletion, with electrical design being lowest and equal to plumbing. An unexpected result was how manytake their designs to a construction document (CD) level of completeness (Fig. 2b). This could be partiallydue to a team’s ability to go to that level of refinement, or perhaps certain key parts of a discipline’ssystem(s) are developed to that extent while other parts are not. For example, a team may design a singlestructural connection but not all of them in the building. To provide some literature context, most capstoneshave students target a level of completeness of their project somewhere between SD and DD [18-19]. a) covered within the capstone b) completeness of student work

the profession [11], ABET has included mandatoryevaluation through Criterion 3’s Outcome 6 [12]: ability to develop and conduct appropriateexperimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions. Outcome6 consists of four elements [13]: designing an experiment, conducting an experiment, analyzing data, andinterpreting data. According to Abdel-Magid [14], the last three elements can easily be addressed in atypical engineering laboratory course; however, the first element of “designing an experiment” is ratherdifficult to address in an undergraduate course. Some educators argue that it is better to have students runfewer but more open-ended experiments than many well-prescribed and guided experiments [13-15

Level 6 are apprenticeship programs. Level 7 provides“ordinary” three-year bachelor’s degrees. Level 8 “honours” bachelor’s degrees require doingself-directed thesis research. The Level 9 post-graduate degrees and Level 10 doctoral degreesrequire the same standard of research and writing required globally for such degrees. Here, theBSc and MSc degree designations and the PhD in BIM and Digital Construction all requireresearch outputs and the mastery of established standards of knowledge generation, reflectivepractice, and project management.The MSc and BSc (Honours) research projects expect students to implement a proposed solutionto an industry-relevant context(s) or setting regarding their organization, if possible.

is finding hires with knowledge in thisarea of design. Most engineers graduate with a degree in civil or architectural engineering, wherethe design courses are mostly focused on concrete, timber, steel, and masonry. However, mostfaçade materials are made up of glass, aluminum, vinyl, stone, cold formed steel, and wood.Although literature in the form of codes and standards exists for materials such as cold formedsteel (AISI S-10, 2016) [7], glass (ASTM E-1300, 2016) [8] and aluminum (Aluminum designmanual, 2020) [9], lack of any formal coursework or a textbook that compiles the design of thesefaçade materials, makes it more challenging for engineers working in façade design consulting.Table 1.

was an increase in hot rolledsteel, which is expected due to the structural roof members. The beams for the roof areW14x22’s and the girders are W24x68’s. The GWP from the steel is 70,791.26 kgCO2eq. Animportant feature to understand about the Tally report is that it does consider the fireproofingmethod and paint that will be used for the structural members. So as the members increase insize, their surface area increases, and the need for more fireproofing elements and paint increasesas well. It becomes a domino effect. We can see that within the report fireproofing materials andpaint had a GWP of 3354.49 kgCO2eq in the baseline report, while the model with a semi-intensive roof had a GWP of 6864.14 kgCO2eq. Both factors will add to the

Considering that students reported improved performance in various aspects, suchas retention, confidence in their knowledge, and discipline, it would be pertinent to includethe faculty perspective.

In addition, this opens an avenue for curriculums to expose students to leanconstruction methods, thereby embracing cost controls while reducing waste in construction.
