ABOD 1045 - Damage Analysis and Estimating

Credits: 2
Hours/Week: Lecture None Lab None
Course Description: This hands-on course introduces students to the theory and effects of force on shape and structural members. Class activities include identifying and isolating discrete damage sustained by collision; evaluating the collision damage; preparing collision damage reports and estimates using industry-accepted software and computerized estimating programs. Students must be able to perform physical tasks to complete course requirements.
MnTC Goals
None

Prerequisite(s): Course placement into ENGL 0950  and RDNG 0950  or above OR completion of RDNG 0940  with a grade of C or higher OR course placement into ESOL 0051  and ESOL 0052  and ESOL 1033  OR completion of ESOL 0041  with a grade of C or higher and ESOL 0042  with a grade of C or higher and ESOL 0043  with a grade of C or higher; AND Arithmetic placement score of 64 or higher or elementary algebra placement score of 76 or higher or minimum placement score/ACT score placement into MATH 0070  or above or completion of MATH 0030  or MATH 0060  with a grade of C or higher; AND instructor consent. We strongly encourage students who score below 64 to meet with an advisor or counselor to discuss their review and course options PRIOR to Math placement retesting or registering for a MATH course.
Corequisite(s): None
Recommendation: None
