ENGR Professor Allie M. Smith, dean 101 Carrier Hall 207. I. Microcomputer-based sketching and drafting, interpretation of graphics, flow and circuit diagrams, graphical representation of data. Continuation of engineering graphics tailored to suit individual needs in areas of structural and architectural detailing, perspective drawing, shadow designation, descriptive geometry, etc. The application of common techniques used in the analysis of natural waters and domestic and industrial wastes is emphasized. The laboratory includes gravimetric, volumetric, electrometric and colorimetric methods of analysis.
Laboratory is project oriented.
Fundamentals of speech and oral presentation, business communications, technical reporting, and problem solution layout. Kinematics and kinetics of particles in three dimensions and rigid bodies in a plane. Laboratory demonstrations of buckling of columns and deflection of beams, plane stress analysis. Fundamental concepts of materials science including the structure and properties of materials and their relationship to material selection and system design. The internal structures of metals, ceramics, and polymers are examined to develop an understanding of their mechanical, electrical, physical, and chemical properties.
