This course explores the materials science aspects of properties and behavior of Portland Cement Concrete, including the properties of raw materials in concrete such as cement, aggregates, mineral and chemical admixtures, and fibers. Topics include: physical and chemical aspects of cement hydration and the role of binder types, the influence of type and morphology of hydrates, fresh and hardened concrete properties, introduction to fracture behavior of concrete, and concrete durability issues such as freezing and thawing, sulfate attack, and corrosion of reinforcing steel. (1 credit of design)
-
3.00 Credits
Planning and design of transportation systems with emphasis on highway geometric design components, highway pavement, airport and other selected topics. (3 credits of design)
-
3.00 Credits
This course will cover the evolution of the atmosphere from its initial formation to its natural background condition to its current state perturbed by human activities and reviews appropriate legislation; detailed descriptions of the chemistry of the carbon, nitrogen and sulfur cycles; characterization of the atmospheric aerosol and its role in heterogeneous reaction sand materials transport; stratospheric ozone and problems with its depletion; airborne radio-activity and its role in atmospheric ion chemistry.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to the emerging field of hazardous waste management. This course provides an understanding of environmental regulations, management techniques to minimize the generation and disposal of hazardous wastes, and technologies to treat wastes and remediate disposal sites. (1.5 credits of design)
-
3.00 Credits
A comprehensive design of an open ended project related to structural, foundation and transportation design and construction management will be developed by teams of students. The design will be based on knowledge acquired in prior courses, professional ethics and engineering economics. Written reports and oral presentations about the design will be made to the faculty and student peers. (3 credits of design)
-

Written reports and oral presentations about the design will be made to the faculty and student peers. (3 credits of design)
-
3.00 Credits
A comprehensive open ended project related to building design with architectural, structural, geotechnical/foundation, environmental quality and construction management issues will be developed by teams of students. The design will be based on knowledge acquired in prior courses, sustainability, professional ethics and engineering economics. Written reports and oral presentations including physical or virtual models of the design will be made to the faculty and student peers. (3 credits of design)
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides students with an opportunity to work in teams to conduct an open-ended transportation systems design project. Examples of project components include performance evaluation of existing systems, geometric design of highways, drainage and pavement design, design of traffic control systems, and cost or economic analysis. Each project team is required to prepare a written report and to give two oral presentations of project findings. (3 credits of design)
