Engineering Ethics

typically expressed in units of pounds per square foot (PSF). Even if thisvalue were measured by a laboratory test for the clay soil the helical pile is being driven into,there would still exist the aleatory variability of the natural material. However, in many cases,the strength of the soil is estimated from some other soil property that is easily, and cheaply,measured such as soil type. Thus the engineer must use ‘engineering judgement’ to estimate howmuch axial capacity a helical pile can safely hold. A commonly used correlation for soil strength,cohesion, and consistency is shown in Table 1 from Terzaghi and Peck [11].Table 1. Soil consistency and ranges of soil strength [11] Soil Consistency

Engineering Ethics

with a world-renowned reputation, MIThas an abundance of scientific & technological resources and engineering talents, whichprovides a core support for its technology improvement and service network. By allowingstudents to break through the established worldview and experience diverse life experiences,MIT supports students' growth and gives students a better understanding of the world andwhere they are. In the process of serving the society with technology, MIT has formed agroup of well-targeted and distinctive laboratories. The D-Lab (Development Lab), which isaimed at coping with the challenges of poverty, is a typical representative. D-Lab was founded in 2002 by Amy Smith, a senior lecturer in Mechanical Engineering.D-Lab has

, microfluidics for measuring cell motility, wearable electronics, laboratory automation of fly work in genetics research and 3d printing in mechanics education. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 Implicit Attitudes in Engineering: Coding, Marketing and BiasAbstractSome of the most difficult to teach and measure student learning outcomes are those associatedwith societal awareness and impact. Many engineering classes are already oversaturated withtechnical material leaving the discussion of current events and social changes that impact oureveryday lives for general education courses. This tendency is reinforced by cultural aspects ofengineering emphasizing technical skills over social
