 Why IDP?
Aims/Goals

To provide students with practical experience in

order to develop and expand their understanding
of the nature of the civil engineering design
process, through a simulation of design activities
of professional engineer in professional
consultancy environment.

 Course Learning Outcomes
 
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:

1.Design the building structures and infrastructures for

complex engineering based on relevant guidelines.
[PLO10 C5]

2.Organize a project in team effectively as well as an

individual. [PLO9 C5]

3.Propose a technical knowledge through project report

 Lecture Plan – Course Content
 Students are required to complete infrastructure design and
building structure design projects.

 Students will be working in team of maximum 5 persons from

the beginning until end of the semester to complete the
projects.

 For the infrastructure design, students are required to carry out

all of the following infrastructure design:
- Earthwork
- Water reticulation
- Sewerage reticulation
- Road & drainage
 Lecture Plan – Course Content
• For the building structure design, students are
required to conduct minimum one building
structure planning and design.

• Cost estimation of the infrastructure and

structural design output is required to include in
the final report.

• Fundamental of Civil Engineering Exam (FCEE)

is included in IDP as part of the evaluation.

 Professional Engineer (PE)
• A Professional Engineer (PE) is an engineer who is
registered or licensed within certain jurisdictions to offer
professional services directly to the public.

• The professional status and the actual practice of

professional engineering is legally defined and protected
by a government body. In some jurisdictions only
registered or licensed engineers are permitted to use the
title, or to practice professional engineering. The earmark
that distinguishes a licensed or registered engineer is the
authority to sign and seal or "stamp" engineering
documents (reports, drawings, and calculations) for a
study, estimate, design or analysis, thus taking legal
responsibility for it.

• The title of Ir is used in Malaysia for PE.
