1 STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK COLLEGE OF TECHNOLOGY CANTON, NEW YORK COURSE OUTLINE CONS 216 Soils in Construction Prepared By: Adrienne C. Rygel, Ph.D. CANINO SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY Department of Civil and Construction Technology May 2015
2 A. TITLE: Soils in Construction B. COURSE NUMBER: CONS 216 C. CREDIT HOURS: 4 D. WRITING INTENSIVE COURSE: Yes E. COURSE LENGTH: 15 Weeks F. SEMESTER(S) OFFERED: Spring G. HOURS OF LECTURE, LABORATORY, RECITATION, TUTORIAL, ACTIVITY: 3, 50-minute lectures and 1, 3-hour lab H. CATALOGUE DESCRIPTION: Students learn about soil types, soil properties, soil classification, and basic soil property tests. Students learn how to conduct site and subsurface investigations. Introductory concepts of hydrogeology are introduced, students learn to measure and calculate hydraulic conductivity, and site dewatering techniques are discussed. Other site work related topics include: the compaction control process, slope stability and erosion control, excavation safety and support systems, and roadway subgrades materials and testing. Students learn about types of shallow foundations, deep foundations, and retaining structures and aspects of their construction as related to soil work. The laboratory component of the course explores soil testing methods and analytical problems related to lecture topics. Students learn and practice basic reporting styles used in industry. This is a writing intensive course. I. PRE-REQUISITES: MATH 121 (College Algebra), MATH 123 (Pre-Calculus), or MATH 135(Technical Math I), and sophomore status, or permission of the instructor. J. GOALS (STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES): By the end of this course, the student will be able to: Course Objective a. Test a soil sample and analyze the data to determine the following soil index properties: grain size distribution, coefficient of uniformity, coefficient of curvature, moisture content, liquid limit, plastic limit, specific gravity. b. Calculate the following soil properties based on mass-volume relationships: void ratio, porosity, degree of saturation, water content, wet unit weight and dry unit weight, wet unit mass and dry unit mass, and specific gravity. c. Classify a soil sample using the Unified Soil Classification System and the AASHTO Classification System. d. Discuss and analyze results from field and lab tests used in subsurface investigations. e. Determine the hydraulic conductivity of a soil sample using the Institutional SLO
3 constant head permeameter test; and discuss dewatering techniques for earthwork projects. f. Conduct compaction control tests to determine the maximum dry unit weight and in place unit weight of a soil sample; and explain the compaction control process. g. Discuss techniques for slope stability and erosion control. h. Explain how soil is classified for excavation construction purposes. i. Compose an Engineering Research Report regarding a soil design or construction topic using appropriate syntax and grammar. j. Prepare and present an oral presentation regarding a soil design or construction topic with appropriate visual aids. 1. Communication 4. Inter-Intrapersonal Skills 1. Communication 4.
