Welcome

Owensboro Health Regional Hospital is a medical campus located near the New Madrid and Wabash Valley fault lines in Owensboro, Kentucky. Primarily consisting of a curved 9 story bed tower and a 3 story diagnostics and testing center linked by a 9 story connecting spine, the design team captured the movement of the nearby Ohio River through dynamic site design and building massing. Throughout Fall 2015, the existing conditions will be analyzed in order to propose a redesign of the structural system. This proposal will be the guide for Spring 2015 as the gravity and lateral systems will be changed and analyzed for their interactions with the other building systems.

 

The Capstone Project Electronic Portfolio (CPEP) is a web-based project and information center. It contains material produced for a year-long Senior Thesis class. It's purpose, in addition to providing central storage of individual assignments, is to foster communication and collaboration between student, faculty consultants, course instructors, and industry consultants. This website is dedicated to the research and analysis conducted via guidelines provided by the Department of Architectural Engineering. For an explanation of this capstone design course and its requirements, click here.

 

Note: While great efforts have been taken to provide accurate and complete information on the pages of the CPEP, please be aware that the information contained herewith is considered a work-in-progress for this thesis project. Modifications and changes related to the origional building designs and construction methodologies for this senior thesis project are solely the interpretation of Sharon Jankiewicz. Changes and discrepancies in no way imply that the original design contained errors or was flawed. Differing assumptions, code references, requirements, and methodologies have been incorporated into this thesis project; therefore, investigation results may vary from the original design.
