A basic introductionto the elements of roadway design will also be covered,including horizontal and vertical alignments, profiles andcross sections. (Prerequisite: AR 101 or permission ofdepartment head of Architectural Engineering Technology)CV 192 AutoCAD Civil 3D 3-0-3This course explores how AutoCAD® Civil 3D software worksin concert with AutoCAD Land Desktop software. The specificareas covered in this class include an in-depth coverage ofthe roadway design and site grading tools as well as the toolsavailable to automate the drafting of pipe runs. The access tocentralized project data through AutoCAD® Land Desktopenables students to effectively utilize the civil engineeringadd-on for generating drawings for a project. (Prerequisite:CV 191 or permission of department head of ArchitecturalEngineering Technology)AR 270 Construction Management 3-0-3A course dealing with the business phase of a constructionproject, from working drawings and specifications to finalcompletion of the structure. Both the architect's orengineer's role and contractor's role in coordinating projectactivities are discussed. Also covered are cost control(estimating) and contractual arrangements, including recentinnovations of the industry. The impacts of green,CV 193 AutoCAD Map 3D 3-0-3This course introduces students to AutoCAD® Map 3Dsoftware. It offers a varied range of functionality, includingpowerful drawing management tools, drawing clean-upcapabilities, topology creation and analysis, and GIS linking ofdrawing objects to internal or external databases.
