Behavior and design of structural elements and systems, including continuous beams, plate girders, composite steel-concrete members, members in combined bending and compression. Structural frames, framing systems, eccentric connections, and torsion and torsional stability are also studied. (Y) Prerequisites: CE 3330 or equivalent.

Direct stiffness analysis of frames and grids; second order frame analysis; uniform torsion of non-circular sections; influence functions; introduction to work and energy theorems; polynomial approximation and approximate stiffness matrices for framed structures; topics in beam analysis including shear deformable beams, beams on elastic foundations and elastic foundations. Prerequisite: CE 3300 or equivalent.

Sustainability is the challenge of meeting today's needs without impairing the needs of future societies. This course seeks to provide an integrated scientific foundation to understand the sustainability of environmental systems and of some science-based sustainable solutions. Sustainability science will draw from a spectrum of relevant sciences, including chemistry, biology, environmental science, and physics. Pre-requisite: CHEM 1410 or CHEM 1810

Students will be introduced to current civil engineering challenges and emerging solutions. Research and practical case studies will be included. Participants will summarize and explore implications of introduced topics.

Behavioral sciences offer rigorous and rapidly advancing insight into how people interact with their environments and with each other. This project-based course will expand students' design repertoires by connecting to psychology and related fields. This course is for "designers" broadly construed: those who wish to influence areas such as architecture, engineering, policy, and business. Pre-reqs: CE2010 or SYS2001 or instructor permission.

This class focuses on the next generation of buildings where smart devices, Internet of Things (IoT) systems, machine learning applications, and simulations platforms will be utilized to contextualize the changes in indoor environments and occupants¿ needs, allowing building systems (e.g., HVAC, lighting, blinds) to dynamically adjust themselves to enhance the indoor environmental conditions from the health, comfort, and energy perspectives.

Advanced topics in reinforced concrete design, including design of slender columns, deflections, torsion in reinforced concrete, design of continuous frames, and two-way floor systems. Introduction to design of tall structures in reinforced concrete, and design of shear walls. Prerequisite: CE 3330.

Course equips you with essential knowledge & skills for managing complex projects. Navigate project fundamentals and apply hands-on techniques for successful outcomes. Master Critical Path Method for determining timelines & critical tasks, and utilize Resource-Based Scheduling to allocate resources efficiently. Gain practical experience with Oracle's Primavera P6 & expert insights from Plan Academy to enhance your scheduling software expertise.

This course offers a practical immersion in a live campus construction project, providing direct exposure to the roles and duties of Project Engineers, Managers, and Superintendents. By engaging in field activities, meetings, and context analysis, participants gain valuable hands-on understanding of construction management, problem-solving, and the decision-making process, preparing them with the competencies valued by industry experts.

In this course, students will learn how to use Building Information Modeling to 1) support the decision-making over a project life cycle and 2) improve coordination between stakeholders throughout the design and construction stages. With this hands-on course, students will learn how to integrate all project models to visualize construction process and better predict, manage, and communicate project outcomes.
