3.00 Credits
2:3:0:3 This course introduces the student to the profession and practice of civil engineering. The course has five primary components: (1) a review of the principal subdisciplines of civil engineering and their relationship to urban and regional infrastructure, (2) a review of professional ethics and the responsibilities of engineers to their profession and to the general public; this includes a detailed study and discussion of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) codes of practice, and the use of case studies for illustration and discussion; (3) a study of civil engineering measurements and the use of surveying tools and instruments; this will include an overview of GIS and GPS systems in civil engineering, (4) the use of AutoCAD as a tool for computer- based drawings, and (5) the use of spreadsheets to develop analytic algorithms to solve simple engineering problems.
-
3.00 Credits
A thorough treatment of basic statics and dynamics. Subjects include: vector treatment of static and dynamic equilibrium of particles and rigid bodies; equivalent force and couple systems; distributed force systems; static analysis of trusses, frames and machines; friction and impending motion. Newton's Laws are also treated. Co-requisite: PH 1004 or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
3.5:11/2:0:4 Basic principles of stress and deformation in axial, torsion and bending members are introduced. Elastic stability of compression members and an introduction to mechanics of fracture and fatigue is included. Stress analysis laboratories are conducted in which students work individually and in groups on stress analysis measurement projects. Prerequisites: PH 1004, CE 2114 or equivalents.
-
3.00 Credits
3.5:1.5:0:4 The basic principles of fluid mechanics with beginning applications to hydraulic design. Topics covered include fluid properties, hydrostatics, continuity, energy, and momentum equations. Additional topics cover laminar and turbulent flow, boundary layer drag, dimensional analysis, Euler's equation, two-dimensional ideal fluid flow, pipe flow, pumps, turbines, fluid measurements, pipe networks, open channel flow, and reservoir balance. Prerequisite: CE 2114 or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to architectural drafting and computer graphics. It takes advantage of advances in state-of-theart computer applications in the management of construction. The course familiarizes the student with two-dimensional construction drawings that represent the current standard in the industry, and it propels the student towards the future by teaching the basics of three dimensional computer modeling. This course also introduces the student to the use of the 3-D model with associated databases utilized in the management of construction.
-
3.00 Credits
3:0:1:3 In-depth coverage of structural analysis techniques. Topics covered include: analysis of statically determinate structures; deflection calculations using energy methods; analysis of statically indeterminate structures using superposition; influence lines; slope deflection, moment distribution, and matrix analysis of structures. Computer applications are included. Prerequisites: MA 2012 and CE 2124, CE 2114 with a grade of B+ or better.
-
3.00 Credits
A thorough treatment of steel design principles and techniques. Topics included: design of tension and compression members, beams, beam-columns, slabs and footings; design of bolted, riveted and welded connections for steel structures. The course includes a design laboratory in which students, working alone and in groups, develop design projects. Prerequisite: CE 3133 or equivalent.
