This project presents the design of a STEM educational center for Aldrich Astronomical Society (AAS) at Treasure valley, Oakham, MA. The group designed a structural system, evaluated appropriate mechanical systems, and developed architectural drawings for the proposed structure. The group created the design based on specified building codes and the needs of AAS. The group focused on establishing a net zero building by assessing effective insulation, ventilation, lighting, and abate the building’s energy consumption.
