    This course introduces students to professional codes of conduct and ethics adopted by the International Building Codes. Students examine building classification and fire protection systems, as well as regulations worldwide to classify buildings as safe. This course provides a thorough examination of the height limitations, structural strength requirements and occupancy regulations. Upon completion, students should be able to determine the code constraints governing construction projects. (Fall) [Graded (Standard Letter)]

    Faculty-supervised, applied industry projects that strengthen professional readiness and core construction management practice. Students complete structured activities aligned with Associated Schools of Construction (ASC) expectations and industry standards, while developing and refining practical templates and workflows (takeoff/pricing sheets, schedules, logistics plans, risk/assumption logs, safety and quality plans) that can be used to solve real construction project tasks in professional settings. Students also engage with industry partners through project scoping, milestone reviews, and feedback. Deliverables include a professional portfolio of templates and project work products, along with an applied project package and performance evaluation. (Spring - 1st Session, As Needed) [Pass/Fail] Prerequisite(s): Instructor permission

    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.

    This course addresses design practices, equipment, methods, and construction management practices employed in heavy civil construction. Topics covered include temporary structures, caissons and cofferdams, underpinning, diaphragm walls, earthworks, dewatering, highways, airports, water and sewage, dams, and bridges. While there is a strong emphasis on heavy civil construction, the subject matter has relevance to all industry divisions in that it addresses site development for heavy and industrial construction projects. Future trends in technology and innovative practices and systems will also be investigated.
