Senior Design Projects

ü  Select   a suitable structure with its drawings that is appropriate to the goals of   the program

ü  Apply   the principles of the structural design, planning and water resources designs   according to the assigned codes.

ü  Prepare   and draw engineering layouts for the chosen building and calculate the needed   engineering parameters.

ü  Model   the structural building using engineering software such as Prokon, Etabs, Microsoft   project etc.

ü  Perform   structural analysis against gravity loads.

ü  Make   a preliminary design and check the code requirements and limitations.

ü  Design   the building members (slabs, beams, columns, shear walls, footings, and   stairs) and calculating the amount of steel reinforcement needed.

ü  Draw   the structural details of the building showing all the cross sections and   reinforcement required

ü  Managing   the project by a proper planning for the Time and the activities of the project

ü  A   full BOQ (bill of quantities) tables which includes the quantities of all the   items used in the project and then calculate the final cost by multiplying   these quantities with their unit prices.

ü    Water   Recourses  and/or Wastewater

ü    The project will comprise   designing of decentralized wastewater treatment plant that includes:

ü    technology to be used

ü    the exact process

ü    employment (expected number of   staff required to run the project)

ü    future projection of the project;   as well as proposed life period of the project

ü    identifying any materials that are   going to be needed for the construction and operation of the project   including methods of transporting and storage

ü    energy used (quantity, resources   and alternatives)

ü    water (type, quantity, sources and   uses)

ü    anticipated waste generated as   well as the methods of handling the sludge during the expansion process for   the already existing sludge, or the treatment for the sludge after the   completion of the project

ü    Efficient design should be   achieved, minimum disruption to the community, best environmental   considerations (least impact), public health considerations, operation and   management considerations, other factors to be determined as part of the   project development

5 Realistic   ConstrainsEconomicThe total cost of the structure is to be estimated according to   the quantity surveying for the different parts considered in the project. A   safe design with the most economical sections will be considered.Students should provide a cost estimate for each component and   treatment processEnvironmentalThe design should take into consideration the usage of a green   building technology by applying an isolation system which will reduce the electrical   usage. The design should follow the LEEDS specifications.SocialThe design should be outstanding and adequate to the peoplePoliticalN/AEthical   and SafetyStudents should refer to the Engineering Code of Ethics to   ensure acceptable applied practices. Designs must consider safety factors as   specified in the code (e.g. ACI 2014,..).Manufacturability   and SustainabilityConstruction   works of the building should consider the manufacture and execution process   according to the code’s specifications.Other 6Background   of StudentsCivil   engineering student7 Number   of Students
