WEEK 6

• Planning - Find problem areas that need improvement and set the criteria for the design. Gather input from the public.
• Design - Draw plans to show how the problem is going to be fixed
• Construction - Follow the plans from design to build the solution to the problem.
• Operation/Maintenance - Fix small problems before they become big ones
• Rehabilitation - To fix something back to original condition.
• Construction Engineering Management - Management of construction resources: labor, materials, equipment, money, and time.
• Construction Engineering Management - Design formwork, scaffolding, lifting apparatus, etc
• Geotechnical Engineering - Analyze soil and rock that affect the behavior of structures, pavements, underground facilities, and containment structures for solid and liquid wastes.
• Geotechnical Engineering - Design foundations, retaining walls, roadway cuts, etc.
• Geotechnical Engineering - Field and laboratory work along with design.
• Structural Engineering - Design and analyze all man-made objects whose primary function is load resistance: buildings, bridges, aircraft, transmission towers, radar domes and antennas, drilling platforms, etc.
• Structural Engineering - Must also consider the economics, aesthetics and social implications of their creations.
• Transportation Engineering - Analyze the movement of persons and goods.
• Transportation Engineering - Plan, design, construct, maintain and operate various transportation modes (e.g., highway, railway, air, water, etc.).
• Transportation Engineering - Design traffic management systems.
• Water Resources Engineering - Develop, use and manage the world’s water resources
• Water Resources Engineering - Design water distribution systems, wells, reservoirs, canals, locks and dams, port facilities, and flood control systems.
• Water Resources Engineering - Analyze the impact of other engineering projects on the natural hydrologic system.
• Energy and Environmental Engineering - Apply fluid mechanics, biology, and chemistry to the design and operation of environmental control systems, e.g., municipal and industrial wastewater systems.
• Energy and Environmental Engineering - Combine knowledge from the fields of physics, math, and chemistry with economic and environmental engineering practices to increase efficiency and further develop renewable sources of energy
• Surveying/ Geodetic Engineering - Precisely locate and layout engineering projects.
• Surveying/ Geodetic Engineering - GIS (Geographic Information Systems), GPS (Global Positioning Systems), and lasers distance measurement devices.
• Surveying/ Geodetic Engineering - Maps and aerial photos.
• Materials Engineering - Design, analyze, and construct materials such as: Steel, Concrete, Masonry, Asphalt, & Composites
