3.00 Credits
Fall Lab fee will be required. This is a fundamental course in graphic expression, covering topics relevant to civil engineering technology, architecture, and construction. CAD and freehand sketching are developed at the start to provide a foundation for the application of theory. Geometric construction, orthographic projection, auxiliary views, sections, surface intersections and developments are covered. Students solve graphical problems according to current industrial practices and conventions which include the use of symbols, notations and dimensions.
-
2.00 Credits
Fall This course provides an introduction to personal computers with an emphasis on computing and presentation capabilities of Microsoft Excel. Students are expected to use scientific calculators in a systematic way, and will solve problems from various fields of civil engineering technology.
-
4.00 Credits
Spring This course covers vectors and force systems, centroids, moment of inertia, truss analysis, stresses and strains in homogeneous and nonhomogeneous elastic bodies, temperature effects, bolted and welded joints, mechanical properties of materials, shear and bending moment, stresses in beams, deflection theory and column theory. Prerequisite: Math 150, College Algebra & Trigonometry.
-
2.00 Credits
Spring Using AutoCAD, students in this course will produce drawings relevant to the fields of civil engineering technology, architecture and construction. Prerequisite: CIVL 110, Engineering Graphics.
-
2.00 Credits
Spring Lab fee will be required. This course is an investigation of the various engineering properties of the materials of construction; design of concrete mixes, testing of Portland cement, concrete, steel, wood and asphalt.
-
2.00 Credits
Fall Lab fee will be required. A laboratory-oriented course encompassing baseline, stadia and grid field surveys, preparation of maps and plans, and construction stake out of buildings, pipelines and street curves. Prerequisite: CIVL 101, Surveying I and CIVL 111, Civil Engineering Applications.
-

Fall Lab fee will be required. This course explores highway surveying, including baseline profiles, cross sections, grade and slope stakes, curve layout and azimuth. The data is recorded on typical highway plans. Prerequisite: CIVL 101, Surveying I and CIVL 111, Civil Engineering Applications.
-
3.00 Credits
Fall This course discusses structural steel design theory and principles necessary for design of simple steel structures, design and analysis of beams, columns, tension members, beamcolumns and bolted and welded connections. A simple steel frame is designed for a project. Prerequisite: CIVL 112, Statics and Strength of Materials.
-
4.00 Credits
Spring This course discusses reinforced concrete design theory and principles necessary for design of concrete structures; design and analysis of slabs, beams, columns, foundations and retaining walls based on strength design and the latest ACI code. Prestressed concrete basics also are discussed. Awall or simple structure is designed as a project. Prerequisite: CIVL 112, Statics and Strength of Materials.
-
3.00 Credits
Fall This course discusses hydrostatics of fluids, energy losses in fluids in motion, pipe flow, open channel flow, surface runoff, culvert design and ditch design. Emphasis will be on the flow of water. Prerequisite: CIVL 112, Statics and Strengths of Materials or PHYS 135, Technical Physics I.
