3.00 Credits
Development of a strong understanding of contemporary tools for managing the vast array of information in the project life-cycle. Information is reviewed both from the perspective of knowledge acquisition and knowledge representation. The course focuses on the concepts of Fully Integrated and Automated Project Processes (FIAPP), and the relationships of 3D computer models, simulation, cost estimating, scheduling, procurement, and information technology. Emphasis is given to the implementation of 3D computer models and relational databases and information systems for processing and automating project information. The class makes heavy use of computer applications related to civil engineering and construction management. Prerequisite: Senior status or permission of instructor. Additional construction management courses are listed in the "Construction Management"manual. Most of these are available to civil engineering students as electives.
-
3.00 Credits
Course covers both traditional engineering fundamentals and developing trends relating to the planning and utilization of excavating and earth-moving equipment, trucks, pumps, drilling and blasting equipment, and cranes. Also considered: will shoring and bracing and other temporary site construction operations. Prerequisite: CE 1504 and junior standing.
-
3.00 Credits
The course examines the roles of the project participants in the execution of a construction project focusing on the delegation of administrative duties and responsibilities, the management and coordination of the physical work, and administrative control of project information and records. Utilization of computer-based project administration techniques and software. Prerequisite: CE 3523 (or permission of Program Director) and junior standing.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces the general principles of loads on buildings and the design and analysis of conventional structural building systems in steel, concrete, wood and masonry. It will also address the construction of such systems. Prerequisite: CE 1504, CE 2114, CE 2124 and CE 2504.
-
