Introduction to municipal solid waste management and hazardous waste management. The relationship between the properties of wastes, the techniques and hardware used for waste handling and processing and the ultimate disposal (containment) of waste and other residual materials will be emphasized. Remediation of contaminated areas is also covered. The design of systems for the management and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes subject to economic factors, safety, reliability and ethical and social implications will be examined.

A rigorous mathematical study of flow in open channels, including uniform, gradually varied, rapidly varied, tidal, and flood flows. Analytical and numerical solutions to the governing conservation equations developed with the aid of the computer, and stable channel design addressed. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 357.

Discussion of basic concepts in the analysis and design of bridges using current American Association of Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) specifications. Presentation of common types of bridges, types of bridge loads, load distribution, design of bridge structural components. Techniques for bridge inspection and load rating. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 433 and 434 must be taken prior to or concurrently with this class.

Expands on the basic design methods of CE-ENGIN 434. Includes plate girder design, composite steel and concrete member design, overall structure considerations, and other topics both extending on previous class descriptions as well as entirely new concepts. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 434.

Behavior of structures and structural components exposed to time dependent loadings. Vibrations of systems; descriptions of dynamic systems. Prerequisites: CE-ENGIN 331, MATH 331.

Geotechnical engineering practice related to site characterization. Topics include: site investigation techniques; drilling; geoenvironmental issues; in situ testing; site instrumentation; soil and groundwater sampling; laboratory testing; and evaluation and interpretation of field and laboratory data for selection of soil properties for design. Written engineering reports. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 320.

A review of intelligent transportation systems, technologies and user services with an emphasis on the operation of advanced public transportation systems (APTS) and technologies including wire and wireless communication, sensors, automated vehicle location, information processing and other technological applications; user services include traffic signal priority control, en-route and pre-trip traveler information, electronic payment, and management and operations as they pertain to public transit and paratransit services in large metropolitan areas as well as in small urban and rural communit

Highway location and geometric design principles for streets and highways with emphasis on roadway safety. Includes state-of-the-art design policies and current research findings. AutoCAD and transportation design computer software used for class assignments and the class project. Students enrolled in CE-ENGIN 516 will work in design teams on transportation design projects with an emphasis on creative design and problem solving through transportation systems management techniques. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 310.

Relationship of public transportation to technological innovation; financing and regulation; supply, demand, and price considerations; performance evaluation; routing and scheduling; application of microcomputers; and project planning and design. Prerequisites: CE-ENGIN 310.
