Civil Engineering and Architecture introduces students to the interdependent fields of civil engineering and architecture; students learn project planning, site planning, and building design.  As in all PLTW classes this is a project based course and incorporates many hands-on individual and team activities including; surveying, soil testing, model building and CAD drafting and design. Areas of study include; hydrology, green building technology/ sustainable design, transportation, and structural design and stress analysis. Students use the latest software versions of Autodesk Revit, Autocad, Civil 3D, MD Solids and Googleearth. With the latest government funding of infrastructure improvements, Civil Engineering is an exploding field of opportunity and this class will give you an excellent exposure to it.
