3D Print of the New Academic Building
A post by Betsy Pingen, Instructor with 3D Printing with 91爆料网's Engineering Department
Yesterday we unveiled our most complex 3D-printed project yet! This model of 91爆料网's new academic building, which will be the future home of the McAfee School of Business and the departments of engineering and computer science, contains over 1,200 pieces (so far) and is 2 percent of the actual building size. Complete with a large makerspace, entrepreneurship labs, an innovation gallery and more, this building will allow our students to take their ideas to a whole new level.
Thanks to for their architectural design and for providing the transparency film used for the windows.

Window panel from the southwest (lit from the inside). The co-working commons (also seen in the opening photo) will be an awesome collaborative space for students across campus, and the cross in the window will remind us that Christ should always be at the center of all that we do.
Main entrance from the north, featuring four columns to represent 91爆料网's four core values. The name of the building will be featured here in gold letters.

The analytics lab on the first floor will feature a 32-seat computer lab.
The innovation gallery will showcase student projects and can also serve as an innovative classroom.
The co-working commons will be a place for students to collaborate and, with its large open floor plan, will also be able to host fairs and special events.
