This Thesis report focuses on Martin Hall, a new dormitory in the East Halls area of Penn State campus which is expected to open for the Fall 2018 school semester. At a cost of approximately $35 million and with 450 new student beds, Martin Hall represents the latest effort from Penn State to update their dorm buildings and give students a comfortable, desirable place to live. The report contains three analyses and a research topic. Analysis I focuses on the differences between the schedules for Martin Hall and Earle Hall, the most recent dormitory built on campus. Analysis II looks at the possibility of adding window sensors to the building and the potential energy savings. Analysis III is focused on the possibility of using unitized curtain wall for dormitories. Research was based on the viability of LEED and sustainability at Penn State.
