-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: J M ENGR 3250, J C ENGR 3410, J C ENGR 3420. Flexural behavior and design, strength and deformation of rectangular and nonrectangular sections, shear strength, beam-columns, long columns, slab systems, design of frames, and footings will be covered.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Junior standing or permission of instructor. A survey of the legal problems of the construction manager. Including but not limited to, liability in the areas of contracts, agency, torts, assurance, bad judgment and oversight.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Junior standing. The construction industry, its development, components, and organization. Contracting methods. Applications and limitations. Selection of equipment using production analysis and economics. Field engineering, including form design, shoring, embankment design. Purchasing and change orders. Safety and claims.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Junior standing. Principles of economics involved in engineering decisions. Decisions between alternatives based on the efficient allocation of resources. Topics include the time element in economics, analytical techniques for economy studies, and taxes.
-
3.00 Credits
The course will familiarize students with the basic foundation of the construction scheduling process. Included will be a detailed survey of scheduling techniques in an integrated construction planning, scheduling, and control systems. Students will gain an understanding of the critical path method theory, legal implications, and practice. Students will learn to use commercial project management and scheduling software and apply it to a variety of construction problems and projects. (This course will be a combination of two intense weekend meetings, a weekly Internet contact, and two meetings for course introduction and testing.)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Senior standing. A focus on the fundamental factors and techniques that the civil engineer must consider: population, economic base, land use, urban design, regional analysis, fiscal analysis, zoning, and public facilities analysis. Synthesis of these techniques into a major student project, typically involving groups of three to six students. Each project is assigned by the instructor and usually involves a real-life situation or problem that requires original data collection. In-class presentation, discussion, and critique of each group project.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Senior standing. A focus on the legal, engineering, and economic aspects of planning and design of facilities at a site-specific level. Concepts of legal and economic feasibility of site design are developed in conjunction with the study of civil engineering activities involved in dealing with urban design alternatives for residential, commercial, industrial, and recreational land uses. Case studies and review of current legislation affecting site planning and engineering are undertaken, culminating in a major design project.
