HECS Band 2

78 hours lectures and practicals, 5 days fieldwork. Semester 2.

Design - generally three projects covering hydraulic engineering, structural engineering and systems/environmental/transportation/geotechnical engineering. Where possible, these will be treated in an integrated way. In this subject, the designs will be more open-ended and oriented towards overall projects compared with earlier design subjects.

Learning Objectives:

develop skills relating to design in the areas of hydraulic, structural, and systems/ transportation/environmental/geotechnical engineering;

appreciate the holistic and interdisciplinary nature of civil engineering;

develop skills in the reporting of design investigations.

Assessment by on-course assessment of design practical classes (100%).
