EnvE 251
Properties of Environmental Engineering Materials
Description
Study of materials used in environmental engineering including traditional engineering materials such as soil and rock, concrete, steel, and wood but extending the coverage to man made materials such as plastics, textiles, membranes, composites, resins, and polymers.Prerequisite: EAS 210 and CIV E 270.
Corequisite: STAT 235. Credit cannot be obtained for both ENV E 351 ad ENV E 251.
Learning Outcomes
- Classify soil based on its formation, composition, and engineering properties.- Describe the unique behaviour of clay and resulting engineering properties.
- List and describe the different types and functions of geosynthetics.
- Explain mechanisms that impact the engineering behaviour of geosynhetics.
- List and describe the components of concrete and resulting impact on the engineering behaviour of concrete .
- Perform concrete mix designs to meet specified functions.
