At the University of Texas at Austin, I teach the following courses:
C E 314K. Properties and Behavior of Engineering Materials. Structure, properties, and behavior of engineering materials, including concrete and metals. Laboratory exercises illustrate mechanical behavior of typical materials and demonstrate selected principles of mechanics. Six hours of lecture, laboratory, and supervised work a week for one semester. Prerequisite: Chemistry 301 and Engineering Mechanics 319.
C E 351. Concrete Materials. Portland cement, aggregates, supplementary cementing materials, properties of fresh and hardened concrete, concrete durability, mixture proportioning, concrete construction, special concretes. Three lecture hours and three laboratory hours a week for one semester. Prerequisite: Civil Engineering 314K
C E 393. Advanced Concrete Materials. Comprehensive coverage of Portland cement concrete materials. Topics include cement and aggregate properties, chemical and mineral admixtures, concrete microstructure and the effects of chemical and mechanical properties, durability issues, concrete construction, and special concretes. Three lecture hours a week for one semester. Offered on the letter-grade basis only. Prerequisite: Graduate standing, and Civil Engineering 314K or an equivalent materials course.
C E 397. Concrete Durability. To provide students with a strong background in concrete durability, including topics such as alkali-silica reaction, sulfate attack, freezing and thawing, corrosion, acid attack, and cracking. Offered on the letter-grade basis only. Prerequisite: Graduate standing, and CE 393 or an equivalent graduate level course in concrete materials.
