A conceptual design to adapt the use of Alumni Gymnasium building into a project center for students and faculty at Worcester Polytechnic Institute has been completed. This project reviewed the existing structural conditions of the building and designed a structural system that meets the new functional needs and building seismic code requirements. Cost estimates and construction schedules for the renovation were also developed. The project used Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools and techniques for visualization, documentation and quantification of information.
