Performance Criteria Students demonstrate the ability to use computers and Information Technology in the solution, documentation and communication of planning, engineering and management related problems. Specific Lessons CE1030: Use of spreadsheet, word processors, internet, presentations and structural design software CE 2002: using software as a tool for structural analysis and design. CE 3006: using software to Evaluate serviceability performance of structural members and systems. Establish suitable member sizes for framing a multi-story building based on strength and serviceability criteria. Present, compare, and use the results from parametric studies for decision making. CE 3020: using Primavera Project Planner software for project management. CE 3021: using Timberline software for project scheduling, cost estimating and cost control. CE 3026: ?? CE 3030: two- and three-dimensional AutoCAD commands. CE 3054: data analysis. CE 4048: computer use to investigate seepage problems (SEEP program) and for stability analysis of a slope (STABGM program). Implementation Strategies for Courses CE1030: Use of Excel, PowerPoint, Word, and the West Point designer in the solution of problems and the presentation and reports of class and homework problems CE 2002: Use of structural analysis software in homework assignments (Type B HW sets). CE 3006: Use of electronic spreadsheets to compile and present results from laboratory activities. Use of structural analysis software to analyze multi-story rigid frames for term project. CE 3020: Use of Primavera Project Planner is required for some homework problems and project work. CE 3021: Use of Timberlin
