CE492 (Version: 2012 2) COURSE DETAILS


COURSE TITLE EFF YEAR EFF TERM DEPARTMENT CREDIT HOURS
CE492 DESIGN OF CE SYSTEMS 2012 2 Civil and Mechanical Engineering 3.0 (BS=0.0, ET=3.0, MA=0.0)
SCOPE
This course provides an opportunity for cadets to apply and synthesize their knowledge of structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, hydrology, hydraulic engineering, construction management and engineering economics in an open-ended, realistic, semester-long, capstone design experience. Working in teams, cadets develop functional requirements for a proposed project then perform the civil engineering designs for this facility. Execution of the design requires extensive use of computer-based analysis and design tools. The products of this effort include a comprehensive design report including drawings, a model of the facility, and a briefing to the client. The integrated design experience is augmented by formal classroom instruction in civil engineering systems design and advanced topics in civil engineering component design. This course constitutes the integrative experience for cadets majoring in civil engineering and civil engineering studies.
LESSONS: 40 @ 55 min (2.500 Att/wk) LABS: 0 @ 0 min
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS:
One comprehensive semester-long design problem requiring four submissions and an oral presentation. Compensatory time provided for each submission.

COURSE TITLE EFF YEAR EFF TERM DEPARTMENT CREDIT HOURS
CE492 DESIGN-STRUCTURAL SYSTEMS 2007 2 Civil and Mechanical Engineering 3.0 (BS=0.0, ET=3.0, MA=0.0)
SCOPE
This course provides an opportunity for cadets to apply and synthesize their knowledge of structural steel design, reinforced concrete design, structural analysis, geotechnical engineering, hydrology, hydraulic engineering, construction management and engineering economics in an open-ended, realistic, semester-long, capstone design experience. Working in teams, cadets develop functional requirements for a proposed building structure, then perform the architectural, structural, foundation, and site designs for this facility. Execution of the design requires extensive use of computer-based analysis and design tools. The products of this effort include a comprehensive design report, a physical model of the facility, and a briefing to the client. The integrated design experience is augmented by formal classroom instruction in structural systems design and advanced topics in structural design. Normally, these topics will include composite construction, simple connections and rigid connections; however, other special topics may be substituted for these, to address the specific requirements of the course design project. This course constitutes the integrative experience for cadets majoring in Civil Engineering and Civil Engineering Studies.
LESSONS: 40 @ 55 min (2.500 Att/wk) LABS: 0 @ 0 min
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS:
