Emergency Evacuation/Assembly Points
In the event of an alarm sounding, all classrooms and labs must be evacuated immediately.
Please respond to alarms promptly by leaving the building by the closest available exit. Faculty
and students must remain outside the building until the 'all clear' has been given by a Fire
Marshall. In case of emergency, call 220-5333.
Assembly Points have been identified across campus. These areas have been selected as they
are large enough to hold a significant number of people and will provide an evacuated
population access to washroom facilities and protection from the elements. More information on
assembly points can be found at
http://www.ucalgary.ca/emergencyplan/assemblypoints.
WELLNESS AND MENTAL HEALTH RESOURCES
The University of Calgary recognizes the pivotal role that student mental health plays in physical
health, social connectedness and academic success, and aspires to create a caring and
supportive campus community where individuals can freely talk about mental health and receive
supports when needed. We encourage you to explore the mental health resources available
throughout the university community, such as counselling, self-help resources, peer support or
skills-building available through the SU Wellness Centre (Room 370, MacEwan Student
Centre, https://www.ucalgary.ca/wellnesscentre/services/mental-health-services) and the
Campus Mental Health Strategy website (http://www.ucalgary.ca/mentalhealth/).

10.1 Use of Personal Electronic Devices in the Classroom
Doing work unrelated to class distracts and disturbs others and should be done outside of
class. Therefore, use of electronic devices such as laptops, cell phones, ipods, all types of
tablets, etc. in class or during office consultation for purposes unrelated to the course, e.g.,
answering phone calls, texting, checking e-mails, watching movies, social media, etc. is
PROHIBITED .
10.2 Rules on Assignments

1. Solutions to the assigned problems are due by 4:00 pm on the date indicated on each
assignment.
2. Only independent work is to be submitted. Incomplete problems will not be considered (half
solutions will not be marked).
3. Calculators may be used. Programmable calculators can be used only to check the
answers, but not to provide solution. All steps of design and the equations used must be
included in the solution. Spreadsheet, Mathematica or Matlab solutions will not be accepted
unless specified in the problem.
4. Use normal size paper (8” x 11”). Engineering papers are recommended. Lined papers or
papers ripped off from a coil notebook are not recommended. Question paper must be at the
beginning. Solutions must be neat, clear and professional in appearance (no free hand
diagrams or sketches). Notations to be used are those in the lecture notes and textbook.
5. No late assignments will be accepted, unless for valid reasons such as illness. In any case,
none will be accepted once all marked papers are handed back to others.

Special Topics: Sustainable Concrete
Concrete is by far the most widely used material for construction. Design of sustainable concrete is
therefore a key factor in reducing the environmental impact of the construction industry. Practical
approaches to making concrete more sustainable will be discussed in this course. A focus will be
given to producing High Performance Concrete (HPC). Students will work independently, in teams of
three or four, to develop a sustainable concrete mix-design that meets a set specification.

Academic Credit: 3
1 Recognize strategies for successful design and production of sustainable concrete.
2 Apply design thinking to develop a solution to a defined problem.

3 Complete the concrete mix-deign project in a team setting with minimal supervision.
4 Use appropriate instruments, careful data collection, and safe practices to develop a
concrete mix-design from experimentation.
5 Communicate the results of your work in a professional manner through the assignments,
final report and presentation.

In the event of an alarm sounding, all classrooms and labs must be evacuated immediately. Please
respond to alarms promptly by leaving the building by the closest available exit. Faculty and students
must remain outside the building until the 'all clear' has been given by a Fire Marshall. In case of
emergency, call 220-5333.
Assembly Points have been identified across campus. These areas have been selected as they are
large enough to hold a significant number of people and will provide an evacuated population access
to washroom facilities and protection from the elements. More information on assembly points can be
found at
