Solved Case Studies in Engineering Ethics

Evaluation of Case Study
Please follow the steps when analyzing a case study and answer the questions in the assignments.
Step1: Describe the issues discussed in the case study. (write 1-2 paragraphs)
 Read the case study and understand what the issues are presented and write it in your own words.
Step 2: Present the concepts and principles that could be applied to address those issues. (write 1-2 paragraphs)
 After understanding the issues in the case study, try to recall the concepts learned in the course and think which principles are relevant and could be applied to this particular case.
Step 3: Analyze the case study using the principles. (write 1-2 paragraphs)
 Once you are sure of the principles to be used to address the issue, then try to analyze the problem using reasoning and multiple viewpoints.
Step 4: Discuss your solution to resolve the ethical issue. (write 1-2 paragraphs)
 After analyzing the problem, you would come up with a solution to resolve the issue in a way you think is best. Remember it’s your analysis and there might be different ways to resolve the issue.
Step 5: Answer the questions asked in the assignment.
 Don’t forget to answer the questions asked in the assignment as they carry points

Sustainability in Buildings

Write about the incorporation of sustainability or green concepts in one of the buildings located anywhere in the world (5,000 words). Select a building with enough information.

Civil engineering contemporary issues

Among the criteria that ABET uses in evaluating engineering programs are a series of student outcomes. One of those outcomes is “a knowledge of contemporary issues”.
This assignment is geared toward assessing how up-to-date you are on a current issue facing civil engineers. In essence, it is a mini-research project.
Pick an area of civil engineering that interests you. The more focused, the better – water reuse rather just environmental engineering (even more focused would be “membrane technologies in water reuse”)
• Prepare a separate bibliography of your articles. Use ASCE bibliography format attached
•Find at least five (5) articles which relate to this issue or issues. The articles must be current, with at least three be from the past 5 years, while the other two must be within 10 years. If you wish to use more than 5 articles, I won’t complain. Use at least four different publication sources, such as:
◦ Peer reviewed Journals,
◦ ASCE Civil Engineer magazine or other professional publications,
◦ At most 1 source can be from a website/blog/non-engineering publication.
Different issues of a journal or magazine count as separate publication sources.
• Prepare a 4-5 page report on the articles. The report should be more than just a summary of each paper. It should be a synthesis of all of the papers, discussing how each of the papers / issues you researched affects the field of civil engineering or society.

Magnetic Field and Temperature
