TERM PROJECT
Homework assignments and the course project will utilize TransCAD, a PC-based GIS for transportation which is installed in the Civil Engineering Computer Lab in EG3141. A formal lab will be held every week; typically on Fridays but occasionally on Mondays and Wednesdays (a discussion section often may be held as part of the lab). Individual copies of TransCAD are not available, but additional formal lab time will be scheduLED as needed. transcad manuals will be available in the Lab, and may be checked out from the TA or the main CEE office. The course project will be completed individually (or perhaps in teams of 2). There will be intermediate reports due during the quarter, and a comprehensive final report will be due during exam week (tentatively, June 16, 2004). Incorporated into the final report will be one or more network design solutions. It is highly recommended that each person/team keep all project material in a 3-ring binder to facilitate management of project documentation. All project reports must be prepared professionally. Given the importance of technical writing in the Civil Engineering profession, each submitted project will receive t
