Strong prerequisites:

• Public Works I. (BMEEOVKAT42)

2022. szeptember 1.

The aim of the course is to familiarise students with the specific design features of municipal water and sewer utilities and to acquire design skills. The course is based on the design principles introduced at theoretical and practical level in Public Works I. Major topics include: strategic planning methodology, medium-term planning, technical, economic and optimum calculations, small-scale and regional systems, urban stormwater management and drainage, relationship between the drainage system and the receiving water body, introduction of design and operation of typical structures, maintenance and reconstruction of utilities. The knowledge acquired here will serve as a basis for the Urban Water Infrastructure Design Project.

Presentations with theoretical knowledge; communication in writing and orally. Use of IT tools and techniques.

The assessment of the learning outcomes set out in 2.2 will be based on the assessment of the control papers, calculation tasks and written and oral performance assessment during the examination period.

Evaluation form	Abbreviation	Assessed learning outcomes
Control papers (7 pieces)	CP	A.1-A.11; B.1-B.9; C.1-C.3; D.1
Calculation tasks (4 pieces)	HW	A.1-A.9; B.1-B.3, B.5-B.7; C.1-C.3; D.1
Written and oral examinations	E	A.1-A.11; B.1-B.9; C.2-C.3; D.1

A szorgalmi időszakban tartott értékelések pontos idejét, a házi feladatok ki- és beadási határidejét a "Részletes féléves ütemterv" tartalmazza, mely elérhető a tárgy honlapján.

In order to obtain the signature, the student must have a total score of at least 21 points (50% of the total) in the control papers and must complete all four calculation tasks with a grade of at least Passed (2) by the deadline.
The deadline for the first assignment is the 4th week of the course; the second assignment is the 8th week of the course, the third assignment is the 11th week and the fourth assignment is the end of the 14th week. Substitutions are possible up to two weeks after the deadline. Missing the deadlines will result in the semester being cancelled.

At the retake of control papers +10 points can be earned. The points of the 7 CP and retake CP are added together and the CP grade is calculated according to point 3.5. If the CP grade is better Failed (1), a written pre-exam may be written.
