  • Building Civil Engineer 7244
    11-16-90 BUILDING CIVIL ENGINEER, 7244 Summary of Duties: A Building Civil Engineer plans, organizes, and directs the work of an engineering group checking plans, designs and specifications for a variety of buildings for compliance with the Los Angeles City Building Code, Planning and Zoning Code, and the State Building Codes for energy conservation and building access by the physically disabled. A Building Civil Engineer performs professional civil engineering work when checking plans for the more complex buildings and making special engineering studies. Incumbents use sound supervisory rules and techniques to build and maintain an effective staff and satisfy affirmative action responsibilities, and does related work. Distinguishing Features: A Building Civil Engineer normally supervises an engineering group which checks plans, designs, and specifications for structural as well as non-structural criteria on a variety of buildings. A Building Civil Engineer personally directs or performs the more difficult work or has overall responsibility for a project and uses considerable independent judgment in carrying it out. A Building Civil Engineer determines what is to be done, personally supervises the most difficult parts of the work, and delegates work to subordinates. As a bona fide supervisor, a Building Civil Engineer performs the full range of supervisory activities including: disciplining employees, taking care of grievances, rating employee performance, and approving time-off requests. The classes of Building Civil Engineer and Civil Engineer are different because: * A Civil Engineer supervises employees preparing plans, designs, and specifications for bridges, sewage treatment plants, and other public construction projects. * A Building Civil Engineer supervises employees checking structural, civil, and architectural plans to enforce the building, planning and zoning, energy, grading, and handicapped codes and regulations for private as well as public construction.

  • Scales Types of Scales Civil Engineering Scale
    Scales • The purpose of scales is to allow an engineer, architect, technician or contractor to determine scaled measurements from drawings or maps very quickly and easily. • Drawings and maps are drawn to different scales such as: 1” = 100’, 1” = 1’-0” or 1:2 (half size). Types of Scales Civil Engineering Scale 1 Architect’s Scale Metric Scale 2 Civil Engineer’s Scale • Full Divided Scale • 1” is divided into equal decimal units of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 80 divisions. • For example, 1” = 100’ is a typical scale used for Civil Engineering Drawings. This means that 1” on the drawing represents 100’ in the real world. Scale & Size • 10 scale represents full size in decimal inches. 1” on paper represents 1” in real life. Hence the name “full size”. • 20 scale represents half scale where 1” on a drawing represents 2” in real life. • 40 scale represents quarter size where 1” on a drawing represents 4” in real life. 3 Applications • Civil Engineers typically design large things such as, bridges, roads, buildings, shopping centers etc. Therefore typical scales used include: 1” = 100’ for plan views of highway designs and 1” = 5’ vertical and 1” = 100’ horizontal for profile views. Section views are typically 1” = 5’ vertical and 1” = 10’ horizontal. Other Applications • Sometimes scales are used to compute quantities based on a graphical analysis. When this is the case units of measurement other than length are often used. Examples include: • 1” = 10 kips, 1” = 2000 volts, 1” = 50 buses, 1” = 20 GHz and 1” = 40 people. • Always remember that your answer will be recorded in a decimal format for the CE scale.

This is a career enhancing opportunity for engineers interested in the design of buildings and related infrastructure. It is an opportunity for you to take a leadership position in the enterprise of designing and constructing buildings. But first, some background…. As we all know, the undertaking of design of buildings and related infrastructure is one of the most multidisciplinary activities in which engineers engage. It requires the skills, efforts and involvement of structural engineers, civil engineers, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, fire protection engineers and traditionally trained architects. However….there has never existed a “platform” to bring these diverse skills and capabilities together in order to deliver coordinated services to the clients, companies and agencies needing a cost effective and efficient mechanism to deliver the buildings and related infrastructure they need.

  • An Example-Centric Tool for Context-Driven Design of Biomedical Devices
    Advances in Engineering Education WINTER 2015 An Example-Centric Tool for Context-Driven Design of Biomedical Devices RACHEL DZOMBAK Department of Civil Engineering University of California, Berkeley Berkeley, CA KHANJAN MEHTA Humanitarian Engineering and Social Entrepreneurship (HESE) Program AND PETER BUTLER Department of Bioengineering The Pennsylvania State University University Park, PA ABSTRACT Engineering is one of the most global professions, with design teams developing technologies for an increasingly interconnected and borderless world. In order for engineering students to be proficient in creating viable solutions to the challenges faced by diverse populations, they must receive an expe- riential education in rigorous engineering design processes as well as identify the needs of customers living in communities radically different from their own. Acquainting students with the unique context and constraints of developing countries is difficult because of the breadth of pertinent considerations and the time constraints of academic semesters. This article describes a tool called Global Biomedi- cal Device Design, or GloBDD, that facilitates simultaneous instruction in design methodology and global context considerations. GloBDD espouses an example-centric approach to educate students in the user-centered and context-driven design of biomedical devices. The tool employs real-world case studies to help students understand the importance of identifying external considerations early in the design process: issues like anthropometric, contextual, social, economic, and manufacturing considerations amongst many others. This article presents the rationale for the tool, its content and organization, and evaluation results from integration into a junior-level biomedical device design class. Results indicate that the tool engages students in design space exploration, leads them to making sound design decisions, and teaches them how to defend these decisions with a well-informed rationale.

  • Interaction Design Studio - 711 Instructor: Patrick Thornton Email: [email protected] Thursday 6-8:45 Pm Location: Pac 1815 - Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center
    Interaction Design Studio - 711 Instructor: Patrick Thornton Email: [email protected] Thursday 6-8:45 pm Location: Pac 1815 - Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center Course Description Interaction design is the process of defining products and the broad services built around them. When interacting with systems, people build expectations and mental models of how things work. They learn what they can and cannot achieve. This course is about how to design for interactions that will resonate with your audiences: How the features and functions of a product get translated into something people find usable, useful, and desirable. Through a series of lectures, discussions, in-class design practice, and projects, students will explore the role of interaction designers. Students will learn how to prototype interactive products, systems, and services, and how to defend their work through the cycle of brainstorming and shared critique. This is a studio class, focusing on production processes that are required to develop public-facing work. The studio is important both as a working space and a space for collaborative reflection. Studio practice also describes a working method. As such, the INST711 classroom will focus on two activities: ● Externalization: You will put your ideas and conceptualizations into tangible materials. ● Critique: You will both give and receive constructive feedback on your own work and the work of other students in class. Student Learning Outcomes On the successful completion of this course, students will be able to: ● Explain basic concepts, techniques, and knowledge of interaction design. ● Critically discuss common methods in the interaction design process ● Use visual thinking and communication techniques to develop design concepts ● Build prototypes at varying levels of fidelity and can evaluate them using appropriate methods ● Develop critiquing skills to analyze interaction design artifacts and concept design.

  • An Estimable Resource in the Actual Crisis of Civil Engineering?
    Proceedings of the First International Congress on Construction History, Madrid, 20th-24th January 2003, ed. S. Huerta, Madrid: I. Juan de Herrera, SEdHC, ETSAM, A. E. Benvenuto, COAM, F. Dragados, 2003. History of construction: An estimable resource in the actual crisis of civil engineering? Wemer Lorenz RISE AND DECLINE -A FIVE-MINUTE HISTORY OF THE CIVIL ENGINEER In the year 1762, the librarian of the Roman cardinal Albani, Johann Joachim Winckelmann, born in the North German town of Stendal, published a pamphlet titled «Anmerkungen über die Baukunst der alten Tempel zu Girgenti in Sizilien» (Remarks on the Architecture of the 01d Temples at Girgenti in Sicily) (Winckelmann 1762). In no time, this publication became the manifesto of the young neo-c1assicist movement in Europe. Evaluating his own systematic research of antique architecture, Winckelmann ca11s it the most appropriate model for any form of architecture, inc1uding contemporary. He distinguishes c1early between the «Wesentliche» (essential) and the «ZierJichkeit in der Baukunst» (daintiness of architecture). The c1ear distinction signifies an abrupt turning away from the previous baroque perception of architecture. The concept of the «essential» introduces construction as a defining parameter into architectural theory. According to Winckelmann architecture results primarily from constructive considerations. Noteworthy also is the context of his publication. Only a few years prior, in an Italian publication from 1748, one can find the term «inginiero civile» and in 1768, the term civil engineer is used for the first time in England, where the first «Society of Civil Engineers of the Kingdom» is founded in 1771. The Figure 1 civil engineer is born.
