Calculations

    Practice Sports Arena

    Front Matter- Posts are out of order. Many pictures are not cropped. It is hard to read some posts due to font and color. 1/5

    Architectural Program (narrative)- Missing. 0/5

    Site Information- Maps included. Township information is missing. 3/5

    Codes Requirements- The codes are labeled, but it is hard to read some lines due to the font and background color. All parts are addressed as much as possible. 5/5

    Viability Analysis- You have some justification, but the decision matrix is missing. Of all of the projects, I think your football arena is the least viable. This does not mean your project fails, as the viability itself was not graded. However, there are many things to consider. First, this is going to cost a lot of money. Think about our school and the 14 million dollars it will take just to replace the HVAC and renovate the A-wing. Developing land and building a new arena will be MUCH more than that. Also, I see no viable economic model, as there is little seating. I doubt that Norwell would pay the costs to rent this facility when they already have plans for inclement weather. 4/5

    Preliminary Design- Missing. 0/5

    Revit Drawings- This is a very simple design. Despite the fact that most of the project is a rectangle. and the main piece was downloaded from RevitCity, you did play to its strengths. It would be nice to see more attention and detail of the front business end. There seems to be a couple of things missing, like the site plan and labels. 8/10

    Calculations- Noted based on your assumptions. It looks like some calculations are not completed all the way. 4/5

    Conclusion Questions- 5/5

    Overall decent job on this design. A little more attention to detail would help fill in those areas that I talked about, and actually show the work that you put in.
