A Co-Taught Field Course with Integrated History and Civil Engineering Content
Paper ID #21651 Bridging the Gap: a Co-taught Field Course with Integrated History and Civil Engineering Content Dr. Charles Riley P.E., Oregon Institute of Technology Dr. Riley has been teaching mechanics concepts for over 10 years and has been honored with both the ASCE ExCEEd New Faculty Excellence in Civil Engineering Education Award (2012) and the Beer and Johnston Outstanding New Mechanics Educator Award (2013). While he teaches freshman to graduate- level courses across the civil engineering curriculum, his focus is on engineering mechanics. He imple- ments classroom demonstrations at every opportunity as part of an instructional strategy that seeks to overcome issues of student conceptual understanding. Dr. Mark Henry Clark, Oregon Institute of Technology After receiving a B.S. in mechanical engineering at Rice University in 1984, Mark Henry Clark decided to pursue a career in the history of technology, earning a Ph.D. in the subject at the University of Delaware in 1992. Since 1996, he has been professor of history at the Oregon Institute of Technology. He has also been a visiting faculty member at the University of Aarhus and the Technical University of Denmark. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2018 Bridging the Gap: A Co-Taught Field Course with Integrated History and Civil Engineering Content This paper describes an innovative approach to the integration of social science and engineering content within the context of a field-based course. The class, titled “Oregon Bridges,” combines instruction about both the history of the construction and maintenance of major bridges in Oregon and the fundamental engineering design principles of bridge building. -

Portland Harbor RI/FS Final Remedial Investigation Report February 8, 2016
Portland Harbor RI/FS Final Remedial Investigation Report February 8, 2016 3.0 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING This section describes the current and historical physical characteristics and human uses of the Portland Harbor Superfund Site (Site). Physical characteristics of the Site include meteorology, regional geology and hydrogeology, surface water hydrology, the physical system (which includes bathymetry, sediment characteristics, and hydrodynamics and sediment transport), habitat, and surface features. Human characteristics of the Site that are discussed here include historical and current land and river use, the municipal sewer system, and human access and use. In addition to providing context to the RI sampling and analysis, the factors presented in this section are considered in the refinement of the study area-wide CSM, which is presented in Section 10. Section 3.1 focuses primarily on the physical setting within the study area (RM 1.9 to 11.8). However, the physical features of the Willamette River from Willamette Falls (RM 26) to the Columbia River (RM 0), as well as the upstream portion of Multnomah Channel, are discussed as needed to place the study area’s physical characteristics into a regional context. The Willamette River basin has a drainage area of 11,500 square miles and is bordered by foothills and mountains of the Cascade and Coast ranges up to 10,000 ft high to the south, east, and west (Trimble 1963). The main channel of the Willamette forms in the southern portion of the valley near Eugene, at the convergence of the Middle and Coast forks. It flows through the broad and fertile Willamette Valley region and at Oregon City flows over the Willamette Falls and passes through Portland before joining the Columbia River (Map 3.1-1). -
