LSCE2530

Students will study fluid mechanics and flows in both gravity and pressure systems. Focus is on flow characteristics in sanitary sewer systems, storm water systems, and water supply systems. Students will design a storm sewer drainage system and model storm water runoff. Students will calculate a quantity takeoff and cost estimate for their housing subdivision.Student Learning Outcomes

• Design a sewer collection system for an engineered project, selecting proper materials, slopes, quantities, capacities and system sizing.
• Design a water distribution system for an engineered project, selecting proper materials, slopes, quantities, capacities and system sizing.
• Design a storm water collection system for an engineered project, selecting proper materials, slopes, quantities, capacities and system sizing.
• Develop construction documents for a utility construction project.
• Produce a drainage report for a housing subdivision project.
• Prepare a quantity takeoff and cost estimate of their housing subdivision.
