    Course Addendum: Changes to 2020/21 Teaching In Response to Covid-19 Whilst we hope to deliver as much activity on-campus as possible, the government’s guidance and social distancing measures will inform how much teaching we can deliver face-to-face in the 2020/21 academic year. Working to government guidelines we have adapted the delivery of our courses to a model of blending learning, which consists of a mix of online and on-campus activities. We are equipped to move between blended learning to fully online, or face–to–face, as the Covid-19 situation evolves. The learning outcomes of your course remain the same but there are changes to its delivery, assessment and structure, as set out in the Changes section of this document. The subsequent pages of this document contain the original teaching and learning schedule of this course, for your reference. 24th July 2020 Course Details Course Title(s) All courses in Civil and Building Services Engineering - BEA Course Code 3994 MSc Structural Engineering (FT) 3995 MSc Structural Engineering (PT) 5287 MSc Civil Engineering (FT) (SEPT) 5288 MSc Civil Engineering (PT) (SEPT) 4341 Institute of Acoustics Diploma (PT) 4342 Institute of Acoustics Certificate of Competence in Environmental Noise Measurements (FT) 5222 MSc Building Services Engineering (FT) (SEPT) 5224 MSc Building Services Engineering (PT) 5226 MSc Environmental and Architectural Acoustics (FT) (SEPT) 5228 MSc Environmental and Architectural Acoustics (PT) (SEPT) 2072 BEng (Hons) Building Services Engineering (FT) 2090 BEng (Hons)

  • 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.

  • 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.
