-
3.00 Credits
Introductory study of the basic concepts of physical geology. Topics include geologic time, plate tectonics, rocks and minerals, weathering and erosion, soils, structural geology, earthquakes, geomorphology, mass wasting, fluvial processes, coastal processes, glacial processes and groundwater. A basic science elective is recommended for civil engineers prior to upper-division courses in soil mechanics and foundations. Laboratory included.
-
3.00 Credits
Fundamentals of plane measurement survey including field use of instruments for distance measurement, traverse, differential levels, horizontal curve layout and adjustment of errors. Introduction to use of electronic and computer technology in surveying practice (GPS, GIS). Understanding of key applications of surveying in civil engineering and construction practices. Lab taken concurrently.
-
0.00 Credits
Lab must be taken concurrently with CE 304.
-
3.00 Credits
Course develops a fundamental understanding of fluid behavior, essential to the study of technologically important situations encountered in courses to follow in hydraulics, hydrology and environmental engineering. Covers fluid properties, fluid statics, fluid flow, viscous effects, fluid resistance, dimensional analysis, dynamic similitude, frictionless compressible flow and two-dimensional ideal fluid flow. Applications to flow measurement and flow in closed conduits and open channels. Lab taken concurrently. Prerequisites: GE 205, GE 206; MTH 322.
-
1.00 Credits
Laboratory experiments designed to provide physical demonstration of the fundamental principles covered in CE 308, Fluid Mechanics (taken concurrently). Experimental measurement and laboratory exercises in fluid behavior, including dynamic forces, flow rates and velocity distribution in closed and open systems. Emphasis is placed on experimental procedures, observation and recording of data, class teamwork, report-writing, and relating results to theory. Prerequisite: CE 308 or concurrent registration.
-
3.00 Credits
Classroom and laboratory study of the principal materials used in civil engineering, emphasizing the physical characteristics and mechanical properties that impact their application to civil engineering projects. Included are soils, aggregates, asphalt, cement, concrete, wood, steel and plastic. Code-based laboratory testing procedures to determine material properties and quality are introduced. General mechanics of materials theory is related to the behavior of the specific materials used in upper-division design courses in foundations, pavements, steel, concrete and wood. Lab taken concurrently. Prerequisites: GE 206, GE 207.
