This course is designed for students to understand compositions,
engineering behaviors, and design methods of various civil engineering
materials, including steel, timber, soil, aggregate, portland cement
concrete, and asphalt cement concrete. Laboratory section provides
hand-on experience on various testings on those materials.

Note: 
This will be a several pages (maximum 5) 
descriptive paper (typed) of any material 
(old, new, recycled, etc.) to civil engineering 
applications (structure, construction, environment, 
earth, space, etc.). 
More innovative the materials 
and applications are, the higher the score will 
be given. Keep eye on engineering and scientific 
journals or use your imaginations. The readers 
of the paper shall be the students in this class 
with a purpose of informing them new materials 
and/or innovative civil engineering applications. 
Selected papers will be 
presented in the class at the end of the semester.
Homework will be assigned and collected in the class.
No late homework will be graded.
