Publisher: Boca Ratan CRC Press 2017Description: xiii, 164p.ISBN: 9781498775120.Subject(s): Sustainable engineering | Civil engineering -- Environmental aspectsDDC classification: 624.0286 | B73f
Contents:
This book will provide a foundation to understand the development of sustainability in civil engineering, and tools to address the three pillars of sustainability: economics, environment, and society. It will also include case studies in the four major areas of civil engineering: environmental, structural, geotechnical, and transportation, and utilize the concepts found on the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam. It is intended for upper-level civil engineering sustainability courses. In addition, practical report writing and presentation giving will be proposed as evaluation metrics versus standard numerical questions and exam-based evaluations found in most civil engineering courses.
