CIV ENGR 378W: ICivil Engineering Materials
Course Description
This course provides students with a working knowledge of the design and performance of Asphaltic Concrete (AC) and Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) mixtures through understanding the properties and requirements of the component materials and their effects on subsequent performance. An understanding of the design, production process, construction, durability, and operations and maintenance will be provided. A significant portion of this course requires hands-on laboratory testing and analysis. Roadway and highway pavements will provide a primary context within which theses concrete systems will be studied. Machine Shop Safety is required prior to taking this course.
