1.011 Project EvaluationSpring 2005 Instructor: Carl D Martland TA: Jodie Misiak Lecture: MWF10 (1-277) Information: Examines methodologies for evaluating civil engineering projects, which typically are large-scale, long-lived projects involving many economic, financial, social, and environmental factors. Topics covered include: basic techniques of engineering economics, including net present value analysis, life-cycle costing, benefit-cost analysis, and other approaches to project evaluation, resource and cost estimation procedures appropriate for large-scale infrastructure systems, and incorporating service quality, risk, environmental impacts, and other factors within the evaluation process. Examples are drawn from building design and construction, transportation systems, urban development, environmental projects, water resource management, and other elements of both the public and private infrastructure. Text: Sullivan, Bontadelli and Wicks, "Engineering Economy", Prentice Hall, 12th ed. 2002 (actually, any edition will be ok) AnnouncementsPset#4 ReminderJust a reminder: Those that have decided to complete the next Pset over Spring Break should bring their hard copies to class on Monday, March 28th (in other words, don't email them to me from Cancun...) However, if you do have questions about the Pset, feel free to email me at any point during the week. I will be on campus and answering email all week.Announced on 17 March 2005 3:20 p.m. by Jodie Misiak HW2 Due Date ChangedThe assignment that was originally due on Tuesday is now due on Wednesday (in class). I will be around for last minute questions between 2-5pm today and most of the day on Tuesday (I should be in 1-235 the whole time, but just email to let me know you are coming). Due to limited internet access over the weekend, any email questions that are sent after today at 5pm will not receive an answer until late Monday night.Deliverable: Clear HARD COPY of your spreadsheet (we don't need the actual spreadsheet file) Have a good Presidents Day weekend. Jodie Announced on 18 February 2005 10:54 a.m. by Jodie Misiak Office Hours: Thursday, Feb 17thUnfortunately, something just came up and I will have to shift office hours a bit for this upcoming Thursday. Instead of starting office hours at noon, I will not be available until around 12:30pm (and will be able to meet with people for most of the afternoon). If you were planning to come see me at noon (perhaps to discuss the current homework assignment) and will not be able to make it later in the day, just let me know and we can make arrangements to meet at another time.Announced on 15 February 2005 5:57 p.m. by Jodie Misiak
