increasing their representation in the non-traditional fieldsof study and are becoming more knowledgeable of technology’s multi-facet components,there still remains significant under-representation of females in areas such as IndustrialTechnology. Nelson (2004) 33 indicated that lack of female representation in technologymay be due to a threefold purpose: “(1) women of the world lack knowledge oftechnology, (2) technology alienates and often exploits women, and (3) decisions abouttechnology are made without women’s voices” (p.2). This is reflected from Mayer’s(1995)27assertion that females comprise only 30 percent of the industrial workforce. Thisglobally illustrates moderate but consistent initiatives. The U. S.

Based on reviews of the fire literature,andunderstanding of the use of the space, and a survey of office plans, students selected an officeload of 52 kg/m2 as a representative fuel load. Realizing that flames were still observed at thecollapse time of 102 min, students estimated a burn time for the 96th floor of WTC1 of 120 min.Finally, students used the estimated office load, total floor area of 2873 m2, and estimated burntime to approximate an overall burning rate of 21 kg/s. Scale analysis was then used in order todesign a small scale office load producing similar dimensionless local and overall burning ratesand burn times. The students designed 150 mm x 150 mm x
