Adv Foundtn Eng&Earth Retn Sys

Geotechnical analysis and design related to shallow and deep foundations. Topics include: site investigations, bearing capacity theory, analysis and design of shallow spread footings, isolated pads and mat foundations; total stress and effective stress design of drilled shaft and driven pile foundations. Emphasis on the presentation of designs in a formal geotechnical report. Pre Req: CE-ENGIN 620

Soil Behavior

Fundamentals of soil behavior, soil mineralogy and structure, soil stresses, stress-strain-strength behavior of cohesionless and cohesive soils, consolidation behavior of saturated soils, and determination of consolidation and strength parameters in practice. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 320.

Signalized Intersect & Systems

Traffic control at intersections with an emphasis on intersection signalization; warrants that justify the installation of signals; signal sequence, timing, and phasing; pre-timed and actuated signals; traffic detection and signal controllers; computer simulation and modeling; algorithms and tools for evaluating the effectiveness of signals.

Unified Structural Design

Determination of loads for building structures, including seismic, wind, blast, and thermal. Complementary to material-specific design courses, this course will focus on structural system selection, and system-level design. Interactions between structural systems will also be considered.

Adv Tpcs Reinfrcd Concrete Des

Design of various types of reinforced concrete systems including one and two-way slabs, continuous beams, -building frames, and beam-column joints. Moment-curvature analysis of reinforced concrete sections, moment redistribution of continuous systems, and strut-and-tie modeling techniques are discussed. Prerequisite: CE-ENGIN 433.

Signalized Intersections & Sys

Traffic control at intersections with an emphasis on intersection signalization; warrants that justify the installation of signals; signal sequence, timing, and phasing; pre-timed and actuated signals; traffic detection and signal controllers; computer simulation and modeling; algorithms and tools for evaluating the effectiveness of signals.

Intelligent Transportation Sys

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
