The study of the nuclear landscape on the neutron-rich side of the valley of stability has seen recent developments in the past few years at the NSCL. Progress have been made using a wide variety of methods and reaction probes, all based on the availability of fast radioactive beams produced via the projectile fragmentation technique. I will discuss the evolution of shell structure in neutron-rich nuclei located across the sd and fp shells, based on various results obtained, ranging from the discovery of the most neutron-rich nuclei in that region, to in-beam gamma-ray spectroscopy studies using various reactions such as knockout of one or two nucleons, as well as inelastic scattering. The experimental techniques used to achieve these measurements will also be presented.
