Integrated Undergraduate Structural Engineering Laboratory

土木工程(54)一个综合本科结构工程实验室，改编自斯塔尔和德维里斯模式，正被用作修订所有结构工程设计课程的基础。作为该项目的一部分，制造的结构试验框架提供了对钢、混凝土和木材结构构件进行试验的手段。这些实验和相关的教育活动显著改善了本科土木工程课程，鼓励学生互动，培养学生创造力，并在理论概念和实践经验之间架起了学生联系的桥梁。该项目正在提高学生保留率，特别是来自代表性不足群体的学生。这些设备和相关实验将来自不同集中领域的学生聚集在一起，主要是结构工程、施工管理和岩土工程，并提供跨学科的互动和参与。这种跨学科的学习环境鼓励学生在不同的集中领域探索项目。

Civil Engineeing (54)An integrated undergraduate structural engineering laboratory, adapted from the Stahl and DeViries model, is being used as the basis for revision of all structural engineering design courses. The structural testing frame fabricated as part of this project is providing the means to conduct experiments on steel, concrete and timber structural elements. These experiments and the associated educational activities are significantly improving the undergraduate civil engineering curriculum, encouraging student interaction, cultivating student creativity, and bridging student connectivity between theoretical concepts and hands-on experience. The project is improving student retention rates, particularly among students from underrepresented groups. The equipment and associated experiments are bringing students from different concentration areas, mainly structural engineering, construction management, and geo-technical engineering together, and providing interdisciplinary interaction and engagement. This interdisciplinary learning environment is encouraging students to explore projects within various concentration areas.
