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.

The course involves outside professional engineers acting as clients and bringing in real life design problems to pre-selected teams of 4 - 6 students. Project briefs are given to the student teams and proposals are prepared. At a general meeting the professional clients introduce their project, and the student teams then actively attempt to convince the clients of their suitability to perform the required design work through interviews with the clients and their proposals. At the end of the semester each team will propose two alternative designs for the project including a cost estimate for each.

Capstone Design Project II
|
|
|
This is a continuation of the work completed in CVL 755 Capstone Design Project I for the regular civil engineering program students. However, for the Geomatics Engineering Option the students will form their groups during the first week of the winter term. All students will operate in consultant groups and will complete a design for a typical Engineering undertaking. The course involves outside professional engineers acting as clients and bringing in real life design problems to pre-selected teams of 4 - 6 students. Project briefs are given to the student teams and proposals are prepared. At a general meeting the professional clients introduce their project, and the student teams then actively attempt to convince the clients of their suitability to perform the required design work through interviews with the clients and their proposals. The student will submit a complete report including a complete detailed design.
