Fundamental engineering theoryconcepts are still the core material in introductory courses, however, implementation andapplications of this theory is becoming more and more specialized. Specialized fields inengineering disciplines continue to grow in order to meet this demand. As a result engineeringcurricula must provide relevant examples for students, be based on the needs of society, anddevelop methods used by real world engineers1.One such specialized field is the current demand for engineers with fundamental understandingof building system design.
