This project encompassed a site layout design using structural analysis methods for the Reserva Alto Esperanca in Bahia, Brazil. Collaboration with the project sponsors and research allowed the team to produce architectural designs, structural calculations, and a cost estimate for the reserve. The generated building designs, influenced heavily by sustainable building techniques, are powered by a renewable onsite energy system. The Revit and RISA-3D deliverables will aid in fundraising for the proposed facilities.
