(for my clash report the first half are just single instances, the second half is where I grouped the different clashes into categories and assigned all of them.

Design memo of 300 to 400 words: which system and why, where the grid fought your architecture, what you changed in the architectural model.

For my structural system, I chose concrete columns and beams for both of my buildings. For my 5 story residential building I chose timber columns with TJL Wood Open Web Joist, and then for my taller residential building I chose W Shaped Steel Columns with W10x49 and W shaped steel columns with W 14x30. I chose these because of the height of my building and also how much I wanted each column to span. I wanted a span of about 20 ft so I chose a column with a width of around 10 in since that was 1/2in = 1 ft span. I am not able to use wood to lower my carbon for the entire project but I wanted to work towards that so I made one building wood frame. For foundations I wasn’t really sure how to do them so I chose the thinnest Structure Isolated foundation in the revit family (Pile Cap-1 Pile)

For clashes a large number of my clashes came from walls intersecting with the structural frames. Since I had so many walls and each wall clashed, there were too many clashes of this type. My other clashes included clashes with furniture, I also think these clashes are not too problematic since furniture and other appliances can always be moved. The main clashes I am concerned about are clashes I have with my windows. Some of my windows are interfering with columns. For all my wall clashes and floor clashes, since I recognize that they are just clashing with the structural elements and should be valid, I marked them as valid crashes. For all of my furniture and curtain wall crashes I marked them as issues in my crash report. I also realized some of the columns didn't seem like a problem until I added the foundations which increased the diameter of the columns by a lot.
