Preface
A lot of attention has been paid to this study guide. Because of the pocket-size of this guide all subjects are in short version. For detailed information please check the internet. Have a look at: the extended education and course information: www.citg.tudelft.nl/dos and/or http://blackboard.tudelft.nl the schedules: www.citg.tudelft.nl/iris registering for exams: www.tas.tudelft.nl If you are not able to nd the extended information, please e-mail us at DienstO&S@citg.tudelft.nl. We will make sure that your mail reaches the right person. Because the OOD-operation (reorganization supporting services) within the Delft University of Technology telephone and, room numbers mentioned might change during the course of the year. As soon as the operation is nished (December 2005, to be expected), changes will be published. Drs. Mrs. E. Touw Department of Education and Student Aairs Education of Civil Engineering

EDUCATION AND EXAMINATION REGULATIONS The educational body presumes that each student will familiarise himself or herself with the Students Statute, the Education and Examination Regulations and also with the accompanying Implementation Regulations and the Rules and Guidelines laid down by the Board of Examiners. There one can nd, for instance: the ocial masters degree course study programme rules, the admission requirements applicable for certain course parts, the pass and fail regulations, the test or examination appeal rules . The statute, the regulations and the guidelines may all be found on the following website: www.citg.tudelft.nl/dos and they are also available, upon request, from the education administration desk. Finally, they may be obtained from the reader sales point as a compilation. ADMISSION TO THE MASTERS DEGREE COURSE (Education and Examination Regulations Article 5) 1. All students possessing a certicate clearly proving that they have successfully completed their bachelor of science studies in civil engineering at Delft University of Technology may be automatically admitted to the masters degree course which is divided into the following variants: Structural engineering, Building engineering, Hydraulic and geotechnical engineering, Water management, Transport and planning. 2. In contrast to subsection 1, students who do not yet possess the degree referred to in subsection 1, have permission to follow subjects of the course for just one year, once they have successfully rounded of the bachelor nal project.
6 F O R M O R E I N F O R M AT I O N : W W W. C I T G .T U D E L F T. N L / D O S
However, in case a student has reached the nal phase of the bachelors degree course but is not yet allowed to do the bachelor nal project, he can do three masters degree subjects, the traineeship, the multidisciplinary project, the additional graduation work and the graduation work excluded. 3. For those students who do not possess the degree mentioned in subsection 1 proof of admission to the course is required by the board of examiners. 4. In order to obtain such proof the student must meet or, as the case may be, possess: a. the general relevant criteria laid down by the executive board, laid down in Section 2 of the Students Statute (central part), b. a degree together with the accompanying marks list proving that he/she possesses knowledge which is of a suciently high enough level and standard to complete the chosen variant within the specied studying period. 5. In order to meet the stipulations outlined in subsection 4, clause b, knowledge may be lacking in various subjects as long as it does not exceed the level of 16 ECTS credits. The missing subjects should be integrated into the course instead of the parts referred to in Article 3, subsection 1, clause c of the Implementation Regulations.
EDUCATION ADMINISTRATION AND INFORMATION PROVISION Education Administration The Education Administration section is responsible for recording all the study results of students doing a degree in Civil Engineering. Opening times. The Education Administration section is located in, room 2.73 and is opened daily from 10.00 until 12.00 hours and from 12.45 until 15.00 hours. Results. The results of examinations are always posted on Blackboard. Results will not be passed on by telephone.
7 M S c - S T U DY G U I D E 2005/2006
Marks list. Anyone wishing to obtain his or her marks list can apply to the Education Administration section. Forms. Various forms can be obtained from the Education Administration centre and from the website. CT-nieuws. CT-nieuws is the ocial information bulletin for the Civil Engineering department. It appears weekly and contains information that is important to students. Website. If you go to the Department Education and Student Aairs (www.citg.tudelft.nl/dos) website you will nd there a great deal of topical information for students. Monitors. Much information is also relayed on the monitors to be found in the hallways. Registering for exams. Anyone wishing to register for written exams advertised in the examination timetable can do so via the Examination Registration System (i.e. TAS). Closing date. The closing date for written examinations is two weeks before the examination day. After that date it is no longer possible to register. Other course examinations. It is necessary to register for other course examinations at the respective departments. This therefore also applies to the obligatory mathematics subjects. Enrol for the Propedeuse and Bachelor. Not later than 6 weeks before the point of time when the resultmeeting for the Propedeuse and the Bachelor-examination take place, you have to apply for the exam by the Education Administration (room 2.73). The closing date to apply can also be found in the CT-nieuws. Examschedule. The examschedule for the written exams can be found on the Department Education and Student Aairs website (www.citg.tudelft.nl/dos). The Central Student Administration body at TU Delft (CSA) You can report to the CSA for matters such as: Reporting and registering for a course of study at the TU Delft, Paying your tuition fees at a cash-point, Second course registrations, when switching to a dierent degree course, when withdrawing or terminating the registration, for tuition fee reimbursement, Graduation fund, Technology fund, Administration grant, achievementbased grant,
Ocial declarations for various bodies in Dutch, English, German and French in conjunction with tuition fees, Authentication of copies of certicates/degrees and marks lists, Signing and stamping of forms emanating from various bodies, Student ID card duplicates, Address change (also possible via the Education Administration section), Amendment forms for the Information Control Group (i.e. the centralised national university administrative body). (Again, also available from the Education Administration section), TU Delft university prospectus. The inquiry desk for the Central Student Administration is situated in the Bureau van de Universiteit (i.e. the University Oce), Julianalaan 134, room 0.004 and it is open from Monday to Friday from 08.30 until 16.45 hours. Telephone: (015) 27 84249. E-mail address: Balie1.CSA@tudelft.nl Study advisor appointments and open consultation For general information or if you wish to have an appointment with one of the study advisors you rst have to contact the study advisors Secretariat, room 2.65, tele-phone (015) 27 87436. In exceptional cases they will be able to put you in immediate contact with the study advisors. If you have brief information-related questions you can also go along to one of the open consultation sessions. Time: Monday to Friday from 12.45 until 13.30 hours. Place: the bay opposite the Education Administration centre (between, rooms 2.72 and 2.74). Student Health Care The student doctors belong to the Student Health Care organisation (in Dutch the: SGZ). The SGZ is an independent organisation which also oers students preventive medical care. At the same time the student doctors also operate as ordinary general practitioners. The SGZ is located in the SGZ health care centre, Surinamestraat 4, 2612 EA, Delft, telephone number (015) 212 1507. The healthcare centre also has a physiotherapist
9 M S c - S T U DY G U I D E 2005/2006
and an ordinary doctors practice. Opening times: from 08.30 until 12.30 hours and from 13.30 until 17.00 hours. You can report to the student doctors for vaccinations, medical check-ups and medical declarations. The doctors also help and advise students who have physical or psychological problems that could be detrimental to their studying activities. Studying abroad Within the Civil Engineering department it is quite easy to arrange to complete a part of your studies abroad. Various cooperative arrangements already exist with dierent other European universities, all of which make international exchange simpler. For addresses in the various countries go to the www.tudelft.nl/buitenland site. For further information please contact Marian Schalker, International Oce Citg, room 2.59, phone: (015) 27 84800. Traineeship Oce The Traineeship Oce can inform and support you on all matters concerning a traineeship. For general information, registration (through a written form, not via Blackboard) or to obtain the course manual, please come to the desk in, room 2.59 (open every working day from 8.30 till 17.00 hours, except Wednesday), where Maaike Kraeger-Holland will be glad to assist you (phone (015) 27 81174). She can also make an appointment for you with the Traineeship Coordinator, Peter van Eck, if you wish to contemplate your traineeship ideas or plans. Emergencies When you are on the way to the place where you have to sit an examination it is always possible that something could go wrong. You could be confronted with unexpected trac jams, a railway power cut or something else entirely beyond your control which causes you to be late or to have to miss the exam altogether. In such cases it is always wise to, if possible, directly contact the secretarial division of the Education and Student Affairs Service (phone:
(015) 27 87436) or to get in touch with the Education Administration centre (phone: (015) 27 85445). They will then immediately contact the individuals responsible for the examination and every endeavour will be made to nd a suitable solution. Bear in mind that such steps can only be taken in the event of real emergencies and that the perfect solution cannot always be found. Students who arrive late for the examination because of travel delays are obliged to report immediately to the invigilator. He or she will then decide on the best plan of campaign. The ruling outlined above only of course applies to students who have registered in time for examinations through the usual channels and according to the usual procedures. Quality assurance To determine the quality of the education, the students opinion is important. With this opinion bottlenecks can be tracked down. Therefore, a quarterly course evaluation is helt with the education director, a student advisor, a quality assurance employee, the education commissioner of the student society Praktische Studie and the yearly committees. The course evaluations are meant to quarantee the quality of the education, so there are positive and negative matters. All this is published on the website www.citg.tudelft/dos. The summary of the course evaluations are realized on the basis of: course evaluation report drawn up by the yearly committees (FYC*, SYC*, TYC* and the HTS-committee), reaction of the teacher, report of the Sensor survey, course evaluation with the education director, the student advisor, a quality assureance employee and the yearly committees. The yearly committees have an important role in these evaluations. They often contribute information that doesnt directly come to the fore from the surveys. If you are interested to join a yearly committee, please contact Praktische Studie.

* FYC = rst year committee, SYC = second year committee, TYC = third year committee, Graduation The administrative steps behind graduating: 1. Complete the Graduation commencement application form available from the education administration oce. 2. Take the Proof of graduation commencement form to your graduation coordinator or to the graduation sections secretary (if the indication V is given on blackboard under CT5060 for 1 ECTS credit then this means that the form is ready). 3. Fill in a graduation card, in cooperation with the graduation coordinator. 4. The graduation coordinator will then send that card on to the Education Administration oce for further processing and verication. (The examination programme has to be approved by the Board of Examiners). 5. Make sure to register in time for the nal MSc degree exam (by handing in the Education Administration form together with a passport photo). 6. If, for any reason, you are under time pressure do not forget to withdraw in time (see the Education Administration form). When embarking on the graduation programme it is also important to observe what is laid down in the Board of Examiners MSc Rules and Regulations: Article 17: the graduation work. Article 18: composition of the examination committee. Article 19: the examination committees approach.

General information Structural Engineering Structural mechanics, materials science and structures play a very important role in educating civil engineers. In combination with materials science of concrete, steel, wood and composite materials the structural mechanics is applied for the design, construction and maintenance of structures, ranging from typical hydraulic engineering structures and bridges to tall buildings and roads and railways. Structural Engineering has six specializations: Structural Mechanics, Materials Science, Concrete Structures, Steel and Wood Structures, Road and Railway Engineering, and Hydraulic Engineering Structures. Depending on the students interest the thesis project can be concentrated on the functional or structural design, or on the construction or maintenance of a structure. However, the thesis project can also be devoted to theoretical or experimental research. In the thesis project a subject can be studied in a broad perspective. A specialized project, focused on a very specic topic, is however also possible. MSc-graduates in Structural Engineering are employed in a wide variety of functions (structural design, construction, maintenance, research) in dierent organizations such as public authorities, consultancy rms, contractors and research groups.

General information Building Engineering This variant is primarily concerned with technological and physical aspects of buildings. The appreciation of buildings depends not only on their architecture, but also on the quality of their functioning, the building physics and building technology. Emphasis is on solving building engineering problems and this demands precise scientic knowledge. To obtain the required insight and skills to tackle these problems, students must have acquired substantial knowledge of utility aspects of building, building physics, materials science, structural design, building services and nishing works. Further information: Ir. A. te Boveldt, coordinator MSc-variant Building Engineering, room 1.57 Stevin II; e-mail a.teboveldt@citg.tudelft.nl., phone (015) 27 84982.
General information Hydraulic and Geotechnical Engineering The Hydraulic and Geotechnical Engineering MSc variant oers three specialisations: Hydraulic Engineering and Environmental Fluid Mechanics, including Coastal Engineering (coastal morphology, coastal inlets, methods of coastal protection, design of breakwaters, dredging technology), River Engineering (ow in rivers, sediment transport, river morphology), Ports and Waterways (ports, waterways, simulation techniques to logistic aspects of ports, terminals and locks), Environmental Fluid Mechanics (free surface ows and related transport processes, turbulence, density currents, surface-waves and uid-structures interactions); Hydraulic Structures (all more or less rigid structures as water locks, weirs, piers, storm surge barriers and quay walls, the design of sub-soil infrastructure like immersed or bored tunnels and underground spaces; probabilistic design methods play an important role in e.g. the design of sea defences, but are implied nowadays in all elds of hydraulic engineering); Geotechnical Engineering (the Geo-engineering section provides soil mechanics, groundwater mechanics, foundation design expertise for the entire faculty, subsurface technology).

General information Water Management Water resources engineering is an important subject in the teaching and research programmes of Delft University of Technology. The Department of Water Management plays a central role in this. It consist of three closely cooperating sections, each with its own field of specialisation: Hydrology: Hydrology is the science of origination, the occurrence, behaviour and the chemical and physical properties of water in all its manifestations as surface water and as groundwater, with the exception of water in the oceans and seas. Land and Water Management: The teaching and scientic research of the Land and Water Management section concentrates on the planning, design, construction and operation of water management systems, including the organisational aspects. Sanitary Engineering: Good water quality for people and protection of the environment is the most important focus of attention at the Sanitary Engineering Section. To achieve this, knowledge of (drinking) water production, sewerage and wastewater treatment is essential. Engineers use basic knowledge of hydraulics, water chemistry, microbiology, constructive modelling, information technology and project design when designing constructional sanitary engineering projects.

General information Transport & Planning In the Bachelors Program of Civil Engineering the lecturers of the department of Transport & Planning teach general and introductory courses in transport and in the Transport & Planning Master variant they teach all obligatory courses. These are modelling of spatial developments, activities and trips in networks, trac ows on roads and intersections, application of informatics and communication technology for transport and trac management, design and control of public transport systems and evaluation of the eects of trac on economy, road users, and environment. In elective courses an accent in this eld of the Masters can be given, e.g. infrastructure planning or trac engineering. Graduates in Transport & Planning nd jobs at the government (Transport Ministry, Rijkswaterstaat, provincial and municipal transport and spatial departments), public transport companies, research institutes, and consulting rms. They are planners, designers, researchers, consultants, and, after some years of experience, managers. Further information: Information about Transport & Planning is available at the departments website www.transport.citg.tudelft.nl and at the coordinator, Ir. P.B.L. Wiggenraad (room 4.05, p.wiggenraad@ct.tudelft.nl, phone (015) 27 84916). Graduation in Technology in Sustainable Development In addition to a Masters degree, DUT students can acquire an appendix on Technology in Sustainable Development. To be eligible for this appendix three tasks have to be fullled: Participation in a two weeks course on recent developments in SD and the so-called Sustainable Technological Development method,
Passing SD courses for 11 ECTS chosen from two clusters, Finishing a graduation project related to SD (45-60 ECTS). The referent advises a student on the content of their work on SD. This program broadens and deepens knowledge and skills that are needed to contribute eectively to sustainable technological development. Depth is guaranteed by the thesis project that has to be directed towards sustainability. For every engineering program, a so-called SD-referent determines before and afterwards if Sustainable Development has been suciently elaborated in the research question as well as in the nal thesis. Broadening of knowledge is achieved by the course Technology in Sustainable Development (wm0922TU) and a number of electives. WM0922 consists of 2 full weeks (one week boat trip) plus self-study, and is oered twice a year (autumn course is in English and spring course is in Dutch). Electives The student has to get at least 11 ECTS from courses that are oriented towards SD. These courses are divided in 2 clusters: A. Design, Analysis, Tools; B. Organization, Policy and Society.

Geology for Civil Engineers MSc-programme, semester 2.1 P.M. Maurenbrecher Lectures, exercise, practical
ECTS: 3
The Institution of Civil Engineers (UK) the oldest of all engineering institutions states as the objective of civil engineering To harness the forces of Nature for the benet of mankind. Geology studies the history of the creation of earth primarily by observation of the rock on the earths surface from which is deduced a historical record of the nature of the forces which formed the earth we know today. It is thus not surprising that the father of geology in the UK, William Smith, is a civil engineer. The course is an introduction to this fascinating discipline and is set up to benet the civil engineer to help him read geology maps (the rst were made by William Smith) and to read rocks.
