Civil Engineering
Civil Engineering is concerned with the design, construction and maintenance of the public works we use everyday such as roads, bridges, dams, skyscrapers, and even the less glamorous like wastewater treatment and sewage.

Types of Forces
Learning Outcome: Identify the type of force acting on a structural member.

Stress and Strain
Learning Outcome: Predict how a structural member will react under a particular load given its shape and material.

Elastic Modulus
Learning Outcome:  Use a material's Elastic Modulus  to calculate a structural member's stress and/or strain.

Stress-Strain Curves
Learning Outcome:  Use a stress-strain curve to identify the relationship between stress and strain, and the different strengths of a material. 

Material Selection
Learning Outcome : Select a material for a given application considering cost, weight, and strength.

Truss Design
Learning Outcome : Identify the shapes and patterns that allow for a structure to efficiently hold a given load.
