This course focuses on the design and construction processes of a construction project. The management of construction is covered to include scope of work, rough order-of-magnitude estimating, scheduling, planning, progress reporting, resource constraining, and quality control. The roles of the contractor, owner, and designer are explained. An iterative decision-making design process is developed and applied in multiple contexts that requires developing requirements, performing analysis and synthesis, generating multiple solutions, evaluating solutions against requirements, considering risks, and making trade-offs, for the purpose of obtaining a high-quality solution under given circumstances.

This course focuses on the implementation portion of the design process. The management of construction is covered to include scope of work, rough order-of-magnitude estimating, scheduling, planning, progress reporting, resource constraining, and quality control. The roles of the contractor, owner, and designer are explained. The culminating design experience for the three course engineering sequence is a theatre of operations design where students work in teams to layout, design, and plan the construction of a complete base camp.
