REFLECTION PAPER
Write a brief summary of what you have learned from the course and how did it help you to
become a better person. You are also encouraged to write your comments/suggestions for the
improvement of your program.

I can say that Building System Design Laboratory course subject is one of my favorite
laboratory classes ever since I entered College, since— at last, it was all about designing.

It made me realized that I need to truly focus and analyze different engineering aspects
such as measurements, shear stress, moments, etc. that I need to consider in creating a
computer-generated building model. I acquired some knowledge in applying tools for working
with computer model exploring output or simulation; and in integrating of building systems
modeling as a tool to inform and enhance the design process, as well. In this class, I also
developed some techniques in looking at both realistic and schematic representation.

The course workloads and requirements were quite challenging, since it was all about
doing our own project design— from its location site to the last one which is its perspective, and
in each and every plate I made, I learned something new. Overall, there was a great deal of work
involved with this course subject but I had fun doing them and I also did learn a great amount.
