Infrastructure Rehabilitation provides students with an overview of the life-cycle stages for aboveground and underground infrastructure projects. The course focuses on the required practices and procedures from the initial conceptual stage leading to the construction stage of a typical bridge/culvert and road rehabilitation project, as well as civil/municipal underground infrastructure projects including pipelines and conduits for drinking water, storm, and sanitary sewers. The students will become familiar with standard practices of the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario (MTO) and various municipalities and regions, as they relate to infrastructure rehabilitation, as well as study and utilize the Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code (CHBDC) and relevant standards for design. The students will also learn about the operation, inspection and maintenance requirements for infrastructure projects including water storage reservoirs, treatment plant tanks, and storm water management facilities.
