Abstract
The purpose of this project was to design a gas transmission pipeline that met all federal and local requirements in the most efficient and cost-effective method available. For this project, CenterPoint Energy played the role of a client by providing information regarding the existing conditions of the pipeline, the desired specifications of the new pipeline, the rules and regulations that must be met, and survey data for the selected travel route. University of Southern Indiana students played the role of an independent design firm as well as an independent contractor. The students created a geometric design for the pipeline, a construction plan, and a
construction estimate.
