You are tasked with designing a high-rise concrete building located in a seismic
You are tasked with designing a high-rise concrete building located in a seismic zone with significant ground acceleration potential. The structure must withstand both lateral forces due to seismic activity and vertical loads efficiently while ensuring occupant safety and comfort. Additionally, the building is intended to have an iconic architectural design, featuring large cantilevers and irregular geometries.
1. Describe the detailed design approach you would adopt to optimize the structural integrity and performance of the building under seismic loads, considering factors such as material selection, reinforcement strategies, and structural configuration.
2. How would you address the challenges posed by the irregular geometries and large cantilevers in terms of structural stability and load distribution? Discuss any innovative structural solutions or technologies you might employ.
3. Given the desire for an iconic architectural design, how would you balance the aesthetic aspirations with structural feasibility and safety requirements? Provide examples of previous projects or design principles that inspire your approach.
4. Discuss the importance of incorporating sustainability principles into the design and construction process of the concrete structure. How would you integrate sustainable materials and practices while maintaining structural performance and durability?
5. In the context of project management, outline a comprehensive plan for overseeing the construction phase, including quality control measures, testing protocols, and collaboration with contractors and stakeholders to ensure adherence to design specifications and safety standards.

1)Cosmetic design:
For this assignment, the deliverable is a pdf document that consists of a screen-captured image of your cosmetic design as developed in the CAD software of your choice and a description of your design serving to:
1. help the reader understand what your idea is and what its characteristics are
2. point out to the reader the customer needs relevant to your robotics design and why.
The deliverable must include the following:
Description of your robotics design: Provide at least 4-5 complete sentences that describe your idea. Somewhere in this write-up, you should reference the screen capture of your cosmetic design.
Customer needs paragraph: Please provide 4-5 complete sentences on the customer needs that you thought were central to the design. Remember, a customer need is not complete if it does not include a weighting.To help identify customer needs, you may review the stakeholder needs provided in the Lecture-Design Thinking material and/or add other additional customer needs as appropriate.
Engineering specifications paragraph: Please provide 4-5 complete sentences on the engineering specifications you think will be central to the design. Identify measurable values of your design. Engineering specifications consist of a metric that can be measured and a quantifiable target value. Refer to the Design-thinking lecture for guidance.
CAD mock-up of your design: Create a visual of your idea in the CAD software of your choice. Remember, a cosmetic design exists purely to articulate what your ideas are to someone else. You should focus on conveying your ideas clearly through what you create with your CAD software. Although this is not a functional design, however consider the ability to mock up a design that would accommodate the total number of components needed to build your robot.
The easiest way to generate the requested pdf document is to create the figure you need in Microsoft Word and the text description of your design and how it relates to your customer needs. You can then export this Word document to pdf from within the Microsoft Word software. PDF submission is required. Please see the attached rubric for assessment.
2)Create a Simple Floor Plan with Line, Circle, and Arc.
Steps:
Open a New Drawing: Launch AutoCAD 2023 and open a new drawing file.
Set Units: Set your drawing units to architectural units. Type UNITS and choose “Architectural” from the list.
Create Layers:Type LAYER in the command line and press Enter.
Create layers for different elements, such as “Walls,” “Doors,” “Windows,” “Text,” “Circles_Arcs,” and “Lines.” Assign each object to the appropriate layer as you create it. ( select various lines types and colors)
Turn Off Unnecessary Layers:Initially, turn off all layers except for the “Walls” layer. You can do this by clicking the light bulb icon next to each layer name in the Layers panel.
Draw the Room: Use the RECTANGLE command to draw a rectangular room on the “Walls” layer. Specify two opposite corners by entering the coordinates: (0,0) and (144,120).
Add Walls: Use the OFFSET command to create walls on the “Walls” layer. Enter an offset distance of 6 inches (0.5 feet) and select the inner edges of the room’s rectangle to create the walls.
Turn On the “Doors” Layer:Before adding a door, turn on the “Doors” layer and make it the current layer.
Insert a Door: Use the RECTANGLE command to draw a rectangle for the door on the “Doors” layer. Place it along one of the walls. You can use coordinates like (60,0) for the lower-left corner of the door and width of the door as 36 inches (assume wall thickness as door width).
Turn On the “Windows” Layer:Before adding a window, turn on the “Windows” layer and make it the current layer.
Insert a Window: Draw a rectangle for the window using the RECTANGLE command on the “Windows” layer. Place it on another wall, using coordinates like (24,0) for the lower-left corner and width of the window as 24 inch and thickness as 6 inches.
Turn On the “Circles_Arcs” Layer:Before adding arcs and circles, turn on the “Circles_Arcs” layer and make it the current layer.
Add a Circular Table : Use the CIRCLE command to add a circular Table fixture on the “Circles_Arcs” layer. Specify the center point and the radius.
Draw an Arc: Use the ARC command on the “Circles_Arcs” layer to draw an arc within the room. For example, draw an arc in one corner of the room to show a corner reading table.
Turn On the “Lines” Layer:Before drawing a line, turn on the “Lines” layer and make it the current layer.
Draw a Line: Use the LINE command on the “Lines” layer to draw a line segment within the room. Place it creatively to represent a tiles floor of the room.
Turn On the “Text” Layer:Before adding labels, turn on the “Text” layer and make it the current layer.
Add Labels: Use the TEXT command on the “Text” layer to label the room as “Bedroom.” Place the text at coordinates (60,24). You can also label the door, window, and light fixture.
Set Linetypes and Colors:Use the LTSCALE command and set it to 1 for consistent linetype scaling on all layers.
Type LTYPE in the command line to access the Linetype Manager. Choose appropriate linetypes for each layer (e.g., “Continuous” for walls, “Hidden” for doors, “Dashed” for windows) and assign colors as desired.
Save Your Work: Save your drawing with a descriptive name.
By keeping arcs and circles in the same “Circles_Arcs” layer, you can maintain organization while grouping these similar elements together.
Sample Coordinate Points:
Room Outline: (0,0) – (144,120)
Door: (60,0) Left corner, 36 inches and 6 inches width and thickness respectively
Window: (24,0) Left corner, 24 inches and 6 inches width and thickness respectively- (48,6)
Room Label: (60,24)
Circular Table: Specify a center point and radius.
Arc: Place it creatively within the room.
Line: Draw a line segment within the room.
Tips:
Zoom in and out using the scroll wheel of your mouse for better visibility.
Experiment with different linetypes, colors, and layer assignments to practice adjusting settings.
In this exercise, you will create a simple floor plan using AutoCAD 2023. The drawing will include the following elements in a Floor Plan
Room: A rectangular room with dimensions of 144 inches in length and 120 inches in width, representing the floor plan.
Walls: Interior walls created using the OFFSET command. The walls are 6 inches (0.5 feet) thick.
Door: A rectangular door within one of the walls. The door measures 3 feet in width and6 inches thickness.
Window: A rectangular window on another wall. The window measures 2 feet in width and 2 feet in height.
Circular light fixture : A circular light fixture in the center of the ceiling with a specified radius.(optional)
Arc: An arc drawn creatively within the room, connecting two corners.
Line: A line segment representing a design for tiles in the room.
Labels: Text labels for the room, door, window, and light fixture.
Layer Organization: Each element is organized into separate layers (e.g., “Walls,” “Doors,” “Windows,” “Text,” “Circles_Arcs,” and “Lines”) for better management and visibility.
Linetypes and Colors: Linetypes and colors are applied to layers to differentiate and emphasize various elements in the drawing. Linetypes such as “Continuous,” “Hidden,” and “Dashed” may be used based on layer assignments.
The exercise provides a comprehensive introduction to AutoCAD’s essential tools, including drawing, modifying, adding text, adjusting settings, and organizing elements into layers with appropriate linetypes and colors. The result is a well-structured and visually informative floor plan drawing suitable for various architectural or design purposes, with detailed measurements provided for accuracy.

20 years from now, in your
talked about 13 different modes of transportation.
20 years from now, in your opinion, which modes of transportation will disappear, become more popular, or stay the same? Explain why?
those are the 13 different modes of transportation
1) Bicycle. A device propelled via chain, belt or gears, exclusively by human power.
(2) Bus. Any vehicle owned or operated by a publicly owned or operated transit system, or
operated under contract with a publicly owned or operated transit system, and used to
provide to the general public, regularly scheduled transportation for which a fare is charged.
A general public paratransit vehicle is not a transit bus.
(3) Bus Rapid Transit (BRT). A flexible rubber-tired rapid-transit mode that combines stations,
vehicles, services, exclusive running ways, and Intelligent Transportation System elements
into an integrated system with a strong positive identity that evokes a unique image.
(4) Commuter Rail. Traditional rapid and heavy rail passenger service intended to provide travel
options in suburban and urban areas. Corridor lengths are typically shorter than intercity
passenger rail services. Top operating speeds are in the range of 90 to 110 miles per hour.
The tracks may or may not be shared with freight trains and typically are in a separate right
of way.
(5) Conventional Rail. Traditional intercity passenger rail and interregional freight rail. Top
operating speeds are in the range of 60 to 110 miles per hour. The tracks may or may not
be shared by passenger and freight trains and typically run within their own right of way
corridor.
(6) Design Vehicle. The largest vehicle commonly expected on a particular roadway.
Descriptions of these vehicles are found in Index 404.4.
(7) Equestrian. A rider on horseback.
(8) High Speed Rail. A type of intercity and interregional passenger rail service that operates
significantly faster than conventional rail. Top operating speeds are typically 150 to
220 miles per hour. These trains may be powered by overhead high voltage lines or
technologies such as Maglev. The tracks are grade separated within a separate controlled
access right of way and may or may not be shared with freight trains.
(9) Light Rail. A form of urban transit that uses rail cars on fixed rails in a right of way that may
or may not be grade separated. Motorized vehicles and bicycles may share the same
transportation corridor. These railcars are typically electrically driven with power supplied
from an overhead line rather than an electrified third rail. Top operating speeds are typically
60 miles per hour.
60-16 Highway Design Manual
July 1, 2020
(10)Pedestrian. A person who is afoot or who is using any of the following: (a) a means of
conveyance propelled by human power other than a bicycle, or (b) an electric personal
assistive mobility device. Includes a person who is operating a self-propelled wheelchair,
motorized tricycle, or motorized quadricycle and, by reason of physical disability, is
otherwise unable to move about as a pedestrian as specified in part (a) above.
(11)Street Car, Trams or Trolley. A passenger rail vehicle which runs on tracks along public
urban streets and also sometimes on separate rights of way. It may also run between cities
and/or towns, and/or partially grade separated structures.
(12)Transit. Includes light rail; commuter rail; motorbus; street car, tram, trolley bus; BRT;
automated guideway; and demand responsive vehicles. The most common application is
for motorbus transit. See Index 404.4 for a description of the design vehicle as related to
buses.
(13)Vehicle. A device to move, propel or draw a person upon a highway, except a device on
rails or propelled exclusively by human power. This definition, abstracted from the CVC, is
intended to refer to motor vehicles, excluding those devices necessary to provide mobility to
persons with disabilities
