  • CE 3370: Advanced Pavement Design

    3.00 Credits
    Southern Utah University

    This course provides advanced analysis and design of highway and airfield pavements, with an emphasis on mechanistic-empirical (ME) design, performance prediction, constructability, and life-cycle decision-making. Topics include traffic loading characterization (ESALs and axle load spectra), climate and drainage effects, pavement material characterization (HMA, PCC, stabilized layers, and unbound base/subgrade), mechanistic response analysis (stresses, strains, deflections), distress mechanisms and models (rutting, fatigue cracking, thermal cracking, faulting, and IRI), flexible and rigid pavement structural design using AASHTO and ME concepts, rehabilitation and overlay design, pavement evaluation (FWD and condition data), and integration with pavement management and sustainability. The course includes a design project using current standards and references. (Fall, As Needed) [Graded Letter] Prerequisite(s): CE 3300 - Prerequisite Min. Grade: D- Prerequisite:    CE 3300

  • CE 4150: Soils and Foundations Design and Construction

    3.00 Credits
    Southern Utah University

    This course is designed to introduce the basic concepts of geotechnical engineering and the correlation between soil mechanics and foundations design and construction. Geotechnical engineering will focus on geological formations of natural soils, the basics of soils through hands-on experience in the geotechnical laboratory, soil sampling, soil structure, grain size, classification, water influence, and the estimation of settlement or expansion. Soil mechanics deals with soil properties, groundwater, compaction, consolidation, permeability, seepage, shear strength, deformation behavior, and bearing capacity of soils. Whereas foundations cover the concepts of earth pressure and slope stability, structural design and construction of shallow and deep foundations, design of foundation for seismic forces.
