We are constructing our site plans using Civil 3D. Figure 1 exemplifies the site plan. We are currently coming up with different alternative projects using different locations and types of projects. We started calculating how many new students TCNJ will be adding to the school. After our calculations and researching important documents ,such as TCNJ Transformation 2.0, we were able to come up with the idea that there will be about 600 students being added. Therefore, we will be constructing a dormitory that will account for about 650 or more students. We are starting to compare the hydraulic analysis of Green Field to see where the best locations of our building would be. For the structural component we are deciding the dimensions of the dormitory and discussing if we want to construct the building with steel or concrete. A goal for the upcoming month is to finalize the alternative designs and pick a specific location on Green Field for our building! Figure 1: Site Plan made in Civil 3D

The first thing completed this month was our Project Proposal Presentation. We had our first meeting with our advisors. We are beginning the hydrologic analysis of the site by delineating a watershed area in stream stats (Figure 1) and gathering data from the web soil survey (Figure 2). We went over some goals for our group and the project. In addition, went over other possible locations around The College of New Jersey and in other locations in Ewing, New Jersey. Overall, the group decided it would be best to use Green Field for the dormitory. It will be a great addition to the campus and will open the campus to the community!
