Civil Engineering Project 2003

• Challenge - different, big, integrated, result
  oriented, time, knowledge
• different - Teacher acts as a project manager
• Students are treated as employees
• big - design team, project
• integrated - earthwork, aggressive soil,
  storm-water, subsoil drain, concrete elements,
  retention basin, pump pit wet-well, bike path,
  bridge
• Hard work
• Communication

Design Brief

• As recognition of exceptional qualities of Civil
  Engineering students from Swinburne University of
  Technology we have been invited to submit a
  tender for the development of stage-1 of the
  Docklands Park at Melbourne Docklands.
•  
• The Docklands Authority intends to develop the
  Docklands Park with a wetland and associated
  facilities to collect storm-water for irrigation
  purposes.
•  
• The scope of the project comprises of wetlands,
  rising main, stormwater drainage, subsoil
  drainage, pump pits, retention basin and bicycle
  path.
•  
• Current proposal plans attached provides for
  80 of required irrigation water demands and cost
  4 M to build.
•  
• The Docklands Authority is seeking
  environmentally friendlier, cost effective and
  technically sound alternative to existing design.
