-
3.00 Credits
Design, analysis, construction, and management of flexible and rigid pavements. Stresses and strains, pavement materials, subgrade soil stabilization, bases and subbases, quality control, drainage, pavement-type selection, and pavement management. Prereq: CE 381, prerequisite or concurrent CE 471G, and engineering standing.
-
3.00 Credits
This course focuses on the design of urban intersections and the procedures used to evaluate the operational level of urban roadway systems. First, a review of urban intersection design principles and aspects is presented. Second, traffic signal timing techniques are reviewed and students are required to use two software packages for evaluation of traffic operation of urban roadway systems. The focal point of the course is a group design project where solutions to accommodate all transportation modes and their issues along a corridor in Lexington are sought. Fieldwork and data collection are part of this course. Lecture, two hours; laboratory, one hour. Prereq: CE 211 and CE 331; CE 531 prereq or concur.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to principles of fluvial geomorphology for application in restoring impaired streams. Topics include channel formation processes (hydrology/hydraulics), stream assessment, sediment transport, in-stream structures, erosion control, habitat, and monitoring. Prereq: CE 341 (or equivalent) and engineering standing or consent of instructor. (Same as BAE 532.)
-
3.00 Credits
Rainfall physics, principles of erosion on upland areas and construction sites, stable channel design in alluvial material, mechanics of sediment transport, river mechanics, reservoir sedimentation. Prereq: CE 341 or ME 330 and engineering standing. (Same as BAE 536.)
-
3.00 Credits
Analysis of flow in closed conduits and natural and artificial open channels. Design of hydraulic structures. Prereq: CE 541 and engineering standing, or consent of instructor. (Same as BAE 545.)
