option feasibility studies, culminating in an engineering report recommending a finaldesign. It is assumed that the international “client” accepts the recommendation and studentscomplete construction documents.The engineering report includes the following: feasibility evaluation & assumptions;development and analysis of alternate design solutions; code analysis and review; discussionand analysis of potential design solutions including associated impact analysis, costs, economicand health factors, social impact, safety, constructability, sustainability, reliability, aesthetics,ethics; proposed construction schedule; engineering estimate, cost/benefit analysis; designcalculations; and references (literature and personal).
