  • 3.00 Credits

    Introduction to prestressed concrete; advanced concepts in analysis and design of prestressed beams, columns and slabs. Prerequisite: CENG 4311 or equivalent or dept. chair approval.
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course builds upon the material covered in CENG 3325 to develop a better understanding of structural behavior. Matrix analysis methods, including an introduction to finite elements are developed as the basis for modern, computer-based structural analysis. These and other advanced analytical techniques are used to analyze and design trusses, beams, and frames. Course-work involves extensive use of the computer as an analytical tool. Co-listed with CENG 4314. The graduate student will complete and additional project. Prerequisite: CENG 3325 or equivalent or dept chair approval.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Advanced design of structural steel buildings emphasizing the relationship between design and response of the structural system; theoretical basis of building codes provisions; limit state and plastics design; beam-columns; built up sections, and composite sections; and connections. Prerequisite: CENG 3325 and CENG 4317 or equivalent or dept. chair approval.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Introduction to the design of structural elements for timber buildings including tension and compression members, timber trusses, plywood decking, beam-columns, bolted and nailed connections, diaphragms, shear walls, and columns; design of timber elements by allowable stress and strength design methods; introduction to construction techniques, materials and terminology used in timber design. Co-listed with CENG 4318. The graduate student will complete an additional project. Prerequisite: CENG 3325 or equivalent or dept. chair approval.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Design of structural elements for masonry buildings including lintels, walls, shear walls, columns, pilasters, and retaining walls; design of reinforced elements of concrete or clay masonry by allowable stress and strength design methods; introduction to construction techniques, materials and terminology used in masonry. Co-listed with CENG 4322. The graduate student will complete an additional project. Prerequisite: CENG 3325 or equivalent or dept chair approval.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Advanced topics in mechanics of materials, emphasizing analysis and design of load carrying members. Topics covered include: theories of failure, torsion of open and closed sections, unsymmetrical bending, curved beams, beams on elastic foundations, plane elasticity, and energy methods of analysis. The course will highlight approximations necessary to generate 'strength of materials' type solutions and address the impact of these approximations on the reliability and robustness of member design. Prerequisite: MENG 3306 or CENG 3306 or equivalent or dept. chair approval.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Analysis of linear structural systems subjected to time dependent loads, including free and forced vibration. Classical and numerical methods of solution, including lumped mass techniques, energy methods and introduction of matrix-formulation for dynamic problems. Introduction to earthquake analysis and design. Prerequisite: (CENG 2302 or MENG2302 OR ENGR2302) and 3325, MATH 3305 or Department Chair Approval.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Course provides an overview of fire effects on building structures. Topics covered include: fire chemistry, behavior and development, heat transfer terminology and processes, fire modeling, heat transfer modeling, material properties at elevated temperatures, effects of insulation, and effects of fire on structures. The Eurocode approach to structural design for fire will be introduced. Co-listed with CENG 4328. The graduate student will complete an additional project. Prerequisite: CENG 3325, CHEM1311, CENG4317 or 4311 or equivalent or Department Chair Approval.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Course covers principles of analysis, decision-making, and problem solving required in managing water resources under pressure from development, pollution, and climate change. It focuses on local and global problems, integrated water resources management, the water industry, water law, water security, natural systems protection, water use efficiency, and management tools. Co-listed with CENG 4330. The graduate student will complete an additional project. Prerequisite: Dept Chair approval.
  • 3.00 Credits

    The course will familiarize students with several computer-based models for analyzing and designing a variety of water resources and environmental engineering applications. In addition to using existing software programs common throughout industry, students will also create their own simulation and optimization models using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). Prerequisite: CENG 3361 or equivalent or dept chair approval.
