CET 3110 Construction Materials and Sustainability

Prerequisites: CHEM 1211, 1211L, ENGR 3131, ENGR 3132

3-3-4

Introduction to materials science and the engineering properties of a variety of civil engineering materials such as metals, wood, aggregates, Portland cement products and concretes, asphalt products and concretes. The relationship between composition, material properties and manufacturing will be examined. Laboratory will emphasize the analysis of data and the application of standard tests to design and construction specifications.
