The University Of Montana - Missoula Missoula College Department of Applied Computing and Electronics Course Syllabus  DDSN 245 - Civil Drafting  Credits: 4 Prerequisites: DDSN 114 (CADX 110/CRT 182T) Classroom Meetings: 4:10 pm to 6:00pm Tuesdays and Thursday Room: HB04 Faculty Contact: Eric Iverson – eric.iverson@mso.umt.edu Course Final: Wednesday, May 11, 2016 at 1:10 pm - 3:10 pm  Catalog Description:   Introduce students to computer aided design software for common survey and engineering design and drafting applications.  Topics include collection of survey data; the coordinate geometry system; surfaces; subdivision and land planning; road design and corridor modeling; utilities; site grading and drainage; mapping; and 3D visualization.    Learner Outcomes:  Upon completion of this course, a student will be able to:    Describe how land information is measured, collected, managed, and used to produce engineering drawings.    Translate CAD information into alignments, profiles, and sections.    Generate a topology of terrain.    Create and manipulate surface and design profiles and plans.   Create and manipulate assemblies (typical sections) and Corridor models (BIM).   Create Analyze and Annotate Parcels (subdividing parcels of land).   Create and manipulate pipe networks and design profiles and plans.    Required Materials:  AutoCAD Civil 3D 2016 Essentials: Eric Chappell; Sybex 2014; ISBN: 978-1-119-05959-2  USB Storage Media (Pen Drive) 4 GB or larger    Evaluation Procedures:  Grade Distribution:  Attendance  5% Homework  20% Quizzes  20% Labs    25% Final Project  15% Final Exam  15%    100%          Letter          Average A   90+ B   80+ C   70+ D   60+ F   60-  Attendance:  Students are expected to attend each classroom meeting unless otherwise noted; excused absences will be permitted at the discretion of the instructor.  Homework:  Homework will be assigned for each chapter in the book and will consist of reading the chapter and completing a provided worksheet. Homework is evaluated on accuracy and timely submission. The due date will be assigned at the time the homework is assigned. Homework/reading is to be completed prior to class discussions on that chapter.   Quizzes:  There will be short quizzes given periodically during the semester and graded under the same criteria as homework. Quizzes will cover anything and everything that has been covered to that point in the semester. No makeup quizzes will be given.  Labs:  Labs will be assigned on quiz days and will cover the learning units that the quiz covers. Labs will be given a due day at the time the lab is assigned. Labs will consist of a seed file and a list of required tasks that will need to be completed prior to submitting the lab file (.dwg). Students are allowed to share ideas and assistance to each other on the labs but each student is required to submit their own unique design solution for the lab (no sharing work/files)         Final Project:  A final project will be assigned near the end of the semester. The final project will consist of a seed file and a list of required tasks that will need to be completed prior to submitting the final project file (.dwg). Students are allowed to share ideas and provide assistance to each other on the final project but each student is required to submit their own unique design solution for the final project (no sharing work/files). The final project will be due at the time of the final exam.  Final Exam:  A comprehensive written final exam is given at the end of the semester.   Extra Credit:  Homework, labs, quizzes and the final may have extra credit available. Extra credit is applied to the final score as long as it does not exceed the maximum score.  Due Dates: Failure to meet due dates will result in a 2% reduction from the final score of the assignment for each day it is late. If you miss a quiz there will be no makeup allowed unless previous arrangements have been made. The final project must be turned in on the set date to receive full credit.

Studying with other students is a productive method of learning. A certain amount of collaborating on concepts with other students and using resources found on the Internet in an assignment is recommended. Copy and paste is not acceptable. It is expected that each student will input his/her assignment into the computer, and each student must be able to explain any assignment turned in. Collaboration on exams is strictly forbidden.   All students must practice academic honesty. Academic misconduct is subject to an academic penalty by the course instructor and /or a disciplinary sanction by The University. All students need to be familiar with the Student Conduct Code. The Code is available for review online at: http://life.umt.edu/vpsa/student_conduct.php  Dropping and Adding Courses or Changing Sections, Grading or Credit Status University Policy for dropping courses or requesting grading/credit status changes can be found in the catalog: http://www.umt.edu/catalog/acad/acadpolicy/default.html Students should become familiar with all academic policies found in the catalog.  Disability Accommodations: Eligible students with disabilities will receive appropriate accommodations in this course when requested in a timely way. Please contact me if you will be requesting an accommodation. Please be prepared to provide a letter from your DSS Coordinator.
