Practitioners are meeting the needs ofsustainable infrastructure design in diverse ways, so it follows that understanding case studies ofsustainable infrastructure design provides innovation and insights as they occur. Servicelearning, a community-responsive expression of experiential learning, is a reciprocal learningframework which provides access to practitioner’s innovations alongside an opportunity forstudents to strengthen engineering design and analysis skills, with the potential for substantivecommunity impact [5].

theirpresence is in alignment with appropriate social etiquette and communication skills. In addition, another area where cooperative learning is especially impactful is in the developmentof employability skills. Employability skills refer to those basic skills that are necessary for anindividual to obtain, maintain, and succeed in meaningful employment. Students expect to leaveschool after having gained the skills, knowledge and ability to earn a job [38]. These skills include notonly basic academic skills but higher-level thinking skills and the so-called “soft skills” such as timemanagement, communication, punctuality and cooperation [39].

It implies the effectiveness of education programs andquality of practice in this field could be undermined. For example, decision making generatedfrom engineering judgment may lack the grounds of widely accepted norms. Besides,engineering practice could be less tracked, disciplined, or protected. Eventually, less regulatedpractice could lead to adverse impacts on public safety as well as the health of the engineeringcommunity.One of the most important purposes of professional engineering licensure is to provide assuranceto the public of a minimum level of

As temperaturedistribution plays important role in developing the residual stress, students will gain someinsight on the design of metal casting component. For example, non-uniform thickness ortoo thick of a component near the center will cool down too slowly as compared to thematerials on the surface. This will result in residual stress which can lead to wrapping ofthe parts during secondary processing. Different color coding will differentiate the spatialdistribution of temperature profile
