Item North Dakota State University Student Attitudes and Behaviors toward Stair Usage: Submitted to the Red River Valley Research Cooperative(North Dakota State University, 10/24/2018) McEnery, DeonaVisuals promoting stair use encouraged NDSU students to use the stairs instead of the elevator in different academic buildings on campus. Within the academic buildings, we recorded how many people took the stairs or the elevator within four observation days in the span of two weeks. The first week we recorded our control. The second week, we provided a poster. It was concluded that there was a significant difference in stair usage between the four observation days. A survey was also conducted. The results concluded that 85% of NDSU students who participated in the survey prefer to take the stairs.Item Bus Shelter Design Competition Entry from Erica Wachter(Upper Great Plains Transportation Institute, 2003) Wachter, EricaShannon McDonald's Third Year Architecture Studio students were asked to design a state-of-the-art or "cool" bus shelter that could be stationed by the Dome or by University Village.

Why do we feel the need to make rational decisions? The major goal in researching this topic is to provide data which architects can use to illustrate to their clients the most logical decision for the given instance. Rather than a client making important decisions based on hear-say evidence, information can be gathered to create a decision making guide, which will point to a clearly prominent solution.Item Integrated Building Information Modeling Using Off-the-Shelf Software Components: Using Revit, e-Specs and Microsoft Project for Integrated BIM(North Dakota State University, 2010) Frick, BenjaminThis paper examines how a piece of software, Autodesk Revit Architecture 2011, can be used to create an integrated information model for any project using BIM (Building Information Modeling) technology. With the help of e-SPECS for Revit, specifications can be written with a simple add-on to a Revit interface. This leads to great possibilities and proves further that BIM software, in this case, Revit Architecture, is capable of more than just 3D modeling and producing project documents. This could change the way architects do specifications and cost estimating. For the purposes of this research, a demo project was used to show how any project can be updated with cost and assembly code data and produce cost and specification information. Another component Revit has to offer is its ability to create schedules. After creating a schedule (walls, doors, windows etc.), it is simple to add or subtract information. Once finished, these schedules produced can easily be tied in with Microsoft Excel to create a more attractive looking table. You can also add or edit information that Revit wouldn't allow you to do (construction phasing, cost per square foot, etc.). To take it a step further, Microsoft Project can be introduced to formulate project/construction management information (Gantt charts, calendars, network diagrams, task forms, timelines, etc.). This could be broken down by phases of construction and give the Architecture firm and contractor the ability to calculate cost more effectively as a project moves from phase to phase. From there on, it's up to the firm on where they want to take the next step, there are no limits to the capabilities of BIM technology.Item Empirical Analysis of Behavior in Architectural Settings: Using Dartfish and JMP Software to Measure Movement(North Dakota State University, 2010) Brunik, LauraUnderstanding whether the mere sight of architecture can create behavioral responses or not is critical to an architect. If an architect knows what intentional response they want from the inhabitants of their design, then they could decide from a variety of design options depending on the sensory responses for each type of space. The strategy to finding out if architecture can influence behavior is to assess how the users actually respond and behave in particular environments. Sensory responses generally involve color, odor, illumination, vibration, etc. and are usually learned responses based on culture. In this context, the philosophical framework for research is simply empirical. The research analysis is done to determine if there is a relationship between space and how it may influence a person's energy and activity level. Studying children in their childcare center is a good proposition because children are sill adapting to culture and we can get to the root of behavioral responses. Eventually the information found will be used in a thesis as a tool to evaluate whether architecture can assist in a multi purpose health and wellness living center. This center will promote spiritual wellness as well as losing weight and maintaining health.Item Algorithms for Calculating a Building’s Waste(North Dakota State University, 2010) Olson, DrewThis paper examines the amount of waste or unutilized material a particular design will produce. This is being analyzed by the author through the investigation and use of multiple software systems. The ideal intent is the creation of such a program that will be able to inform the designer of the waste his or her particular design is going to be producing with a real time report. This product could then be implemented into BIM programs such as Revit by Autodesk or any other DXF file formatted software.
