-
3.00 Credits
Considers the principles of geology, groundwater and seepage, soil strength, slope stability, and lateral earth pressure and their application to the design of excavations, earth fills, dams, and earth-retaining structures. Preq: CE 3210 with a C or better.
-
3.00 Credits
Study of the interaction between soil and structural elements such as pile foundations and retaining structures subjected to static and dynamic loads; application of general purpose finite element software for solving soil-structure interaction problems; introduction to the theory of finite element method, beams on elastic foundation, p-y curves and advanced testing procedures. Preq: CE 3210 and CE 3010, each with a C or better.
-
3.00 Credits
Ground improvement engineering focuses on methods of groundwater control, densifications, replacements, reinforcement, chemical stabilization, and thermal and biological treatment. Applications, design parameters, and assessment methods are considered for each technique. Preq: CE 3210.
-
3.00 Credits
The course provides an introduction to the theory of building information modeling (BIM).

Preq: CE 3310.
-
3.00 Credits
Study of principles and applications of the Critical Path Method (CPM) and Project Evaluation and Review Techniques (PERT). Includes project breakdown and network graphics; identification of the critical path and resulting floats; definition and allocation of materials, equipment, and manpower resources; resource leveling, compression, and other network adjustments; and computer applications using packaged routines. Preq: CE 3310 with a C or better.
-
3.00 Credits
Instruction in specifications, contracts, and bidding strategies; purchasing and subcontracting policies; accounting for materials, supplies, subcontracts, and labor; procedural details for estimating earthwork, reinforced concrete, steel, and masonry. Also considers overhead and profit items. Preq: CE 3310 with a C or better.
-
3.00 Credits
Covers concepts related to planning, executing, monitoring and controlling, and closing out infrastructure projects from the agency owner perspective. Advanced concepts of engineering economic analysis, risk analysis and data management software are addressed. Preq: CE 3310 and CE 3520, each with a grade of C or better.
-
3.00 Credits
Presents the "why," "what" and "how" for sustainable construction projects. Students gain a working understanding of how to minimize the negative impacts of buildings and other large construction projects. Preq: CE 3310 with a C or better.
-
3.00 Credits
Students develop their technical and creative ability to plan and design for a sustainable future. Students perform quantitative analyses of the environmental and economic impacts of engineering alternatives. Students work in small groups and learn techniques for the collaborative, multidisciplinary approach required for sustainable solutions. Preq: CE 3310 with a C or better.
-
3.00 Credits
Describes activities necessary for the completion of a construction job although not specifically recognized as direct construction activities: general conditions, safety, security, quality assurance, value engineering; organizational support features and typical implementation procedures. Preq: CE 3310 and MATH 3020, each with a C or better.
