-
3.00 Credits
An introductory treatment of the adjustment of survey data incorporating the use of the computer and matrix algebra. Error propagation, least-squares adjustment methods and the analysis of survey measurements.
-
3.00 Credits
This course focuses on environmental technology systems. Topics covered will include: environmental basic concepts, water quality, water pollution, drinking water, sanitary sewer, storm water management, wastewater treatment, municipal solid waste, hazardous waste, Leed building systems, noise pollution, erosion and environmental assessment.
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to building equipment for single and multi-story projects including domestic water, sewer, heating and ventilating systems. Students will design these systems for a residence or small office building. Students will review blueprints and analyze systems for a large commercial building.
-
3.00 Credits
A comprehensive study of the requisites of an effective safety program that focuses on worker safety and improved productivity. Uses a safety training library to provide students with an understanding and application of OSHA guidelines relative to the construction industry.
-
3.00 Credits
Builds upon the basics of quantity survey; use of the computer to support estimating takeoff and extensions of quantities and price for general building estimates. Use of a digitizer and integrated software program to complete quantity surveys. Both commercial building and highway projects estimated.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is intended to give the Civil Engineering Technology student an understanding of the issues related to site development and drainage issues for land development. Students will study the preparation of land development plans including drainage calculations, street and road design, water distribution, and sewer design. Issues related to sustainable development will be integrated into the topics to provide the student with an appreciation of concerns related to energy, as well as material and land conservation. Laboratory exercises will include experiments related to fluid flow, computer drafting to develop site plans and profiles, and calculations including the development of spreadsheet programs to be used in the designs covered.
-
3.00 Credits
A broad-based introduction to GIS, especially the application of spatial analysis and modeling. Applications will cover both hardware and software considerations, map overlays, automation in thematic and topographic mapping, raster/vector devices, data acquisistion, and related database storage and algorithms. Advanced topics will include AM/FM, error modeling and data uncertainty, and new directions and impacts of GIS. Use of Arc View software, and hand held GPS.
-
3.00 Credits
Examining how people and machines are put together to build efficient systems to improve productivity in the construction industry through cycle-time analysis. Course will document existing and emerging construction systems. This course delves extensively into the production capacity and uses of construction equipment.
-
3.00 Credits
Development of the construction project management logic diagram for large multi-phased projects, use of software for scheduling, monitoring, and "crashing" projects to evaluate alternatives to reduce time to completion, cost effectiveness of each alternative, and safety considerations.
-
3.00 Credits
Students will learn the basic physical and geometric properties of the earth. Several mathematical models of the earth are discussed and applied to geodetic surveying projects. Students will learn about satellite based navigation systems and how the systems are applied to geodetic and mapping applications. Students will learn to select GPS hardware and software, observational and network design appropriate for a geodetic application. Students will learn to use appropriate GPS analysis software, coordinate transformation software, geodetic database search software and least squares analysis software. Students will learn the basics of composing a report of geodetic survey.
