CIV4211   Integrated Design Project 1   (20 credits)

Description

The Integrated Design Project (or IDP as it is more commonly known) is a series of linked modules running for 14 weeks of the spring semester. The aim of these modules is to give you the opportunity to experience the engineering design process by working on proposals for redevelopment of a real brownfield site located in Sheffield. This 5 weeks long module involves working in groups on the engineering development of a concept / scheme stage design, considering stakeholder requirements, through option identification and evaluation, to the production of design calculations and drawings. Accordingly, you will consider the overall concept / scheme design, where the ability to consider and integrate a wide range of issues is more important than detailed design calculations.
