4123 class managed to control costs quite well. Using hangers instead of rebar was onearea of cost savings. The hangers were purchased for $0.13 each from a local dry cleaner. Theywere a heavy-gage galvanized hanger, with a cost less than $5.00 to provide one hanger to eachof the 33 students! Concrete materials were generously donated by the Civil Engineeringdepartment. Due to the small scale of the beams (4”x3”x16”) and the fact that students workedin groups of three ensured the material costs were so minimal, the Civil Engineering departmentdid not mind donating these materials. Steel forms from the Civil Engineering department werealso lent to our project, allowing us to save time and money by not constructing a one-time useform for the

Architecture and Urban Design from Columbia University. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Summer scholarship project: Designing and building a multi- purpose micro-farm structure as a pedagogical strategy for Architectural Engineering Technology studentsAbstractConstructing a full-scale mock-up is commonly used in the architectural industry, and it isinvaluable to the design outcome. It provides feedback on the appearance, scale, material, andconstructability. This process can also be adopted as a teaching strategy in a classroom,especially when considering that a hands-on learning experience increases student engagementand information retention.
