This course provides a basic explanation of construction contract claims by types such as delays, acceleration, and scope issues, the underlying legal theories of the contract construction and claims, elements required for each claims type defenses to the claim, prophylactic claims measures. The claims process within the contract and extra-contractual basis's for claims are examined. Resolution of claims by ADR techniques and the formal litigation process are explained. AIA, AGC, and federal claims provisions are described. In addition to construction contract claims other types of claims associated with construction projects are covered such as Surety bond claims and various insurance claims (CGL, Builder's Risk, workers comp, etc) 3. 000 Credit Hours 3. 000 Lecture hours Levels: Graduate Doctoral, Graduate Business, Graduate, Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture Armour College of Engineering College Civil Archl Environ Engrg Department

3.00 Credits
A seminar course on Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). The concept of ITS involves the use of rapidly emerging information and communication technologies in mitigating congestion and attendant problems. A substantial amount of research and development activities have taken place over the last few years. This course will provide an introduction to the various aspects of ITS and will focus on ITS planning, technology, and evaluation. In addition, such topics as deployment, financing and management are also discussed. The course will include guest lectures and possible field visits. 3. 000 Credit Hours Levels: Graduate Doctoral, Graduate Business, Graduate, Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture Armour College of Engineering College Civil Archl Environ Engrg Department
