Course Description This course develops fundamental skills in the theoretical and practical aspects of surveying for civil engineering field data collection, through the use and care of modern instruments and the associated computations. Topics include the classification of errors incurred in observed field data and necessary correction applications, the use and care of surveying equipment,...Read More

Course Description This course deals with basic geological materials and earth processes and how they influence mechanical behaviour and capacity of engineering materials, processes and structures. The linkage to Rock Mechanics and Hydrogeology are emphasized. It is divided into physical and historical Geology. Course Objectives Introduces students to assessment of the influence of geological factors...Read More

Course Description This course introduces the student to various structural forms that support structures and convey an understanding of the primary aspects of their behaviour. Methods of static analysis of linear statically determinate elastic structures subjected to both fixed and movable loads are introduced; as well as computation of displacements using classical methods and its...Read More

Course Description The applications of engineering occur in society, as thus effective communication to varied audiences and clientele is a key virtue a civil engineer must possess. Communication is a tool through which work gets done, ideas get sold and defended. This course introduces to students the principles of organization, development, and writing of technical...Read More
