Structural Capstone Design Project-A/B
|
|
|
The Capstone is a practically designed project integrated over the different areas of Civil Engineering. Students will operate in consultant groups and complete a design for a typical Engineering undertaking. The course involves professional engineers acting as clients and bringing in real-life design problems to pre-selected teams of 4 - 6 students or as the course instructor dictates given the type of projects. Students are required to submit at least two design alternatives for the project that will be evaluated based on economic, environmental, and other considerations. At the end of the fall semester each team will determine the best alternative design for the project. At the end of the winter semester, each team will present and submit a detailed design report.

This course considers structural systems, commencing with the design of individual members discussed in Structures II and moving to the design of the whole building. The course develops the concept of a building comprised of horizontal and vertical systems that are organized strategically. Alternative arrangements of structural systems are considered based on their structural behaviour and their relationship to materials of construction. Building lateral loads and load transfer mechanisms are explored. The course concludes with a discussion on connections and detailing of components of complex systems, exploring examples for specific materials.

Geomatics Capstone Design Project
|
|
|
Geomatics Engineering students will form their groups during the first week of the winter term; project briefs will be given to the student teams and proposals will be prepared. All students will operate in consultant groups and will complete a design for a typical Engineering undertaking. The course involves professional engineers acting as clients and bringing in real-life design problems to pre-selected teams of 4 ? 6 students or as the course instructor dictates given the type of projects. All student groups will submit a final report that includes a complete detailed design.
