23. Tips for success Engineering notebook …daily accountability. File storage: cd rw, thumb drives, “extra” network storage, hard drive?... All activities done in pairs or teams. Spend time early exploring software…simple structures through commercial during semester……site work tricky…

24. More Tips Spend ample time on structural calculations during related activities and in review mode… Part B of final exam will be very challenging. Overarching project “Commercial project/final presentation” is a full quarter and then some depending on how much detail you develop….don’t get bogged down early.

25. More Tips… The Projects: 1)Arch/CE research presentation; 2)Simple structures Revit; 3) Lakehouse project; and all related drawings 4) Surveying; Legal Descriptions 5) Contour Map (3d) survey mapping 6) Commercial Project and presentation, full set of plans, and professional presentation of idea --includes all project development knowledge (covenants, title search, etc), all site work topics, utilities, structural, all calculations (MDSolids) (we do not do the soil analysis project although it will be introduced during the site work section.
