    Ethical Case Analysis-Exercises

    Joseph Berlin Juanzon
    This document discusses three ethics case studies related to civil engineering: 1) Juan Dela Cruz copied structural plans from another engineer's work without permission, violating ethical canons related to plagiarism. 2) Jose's boss changed a design specification to favor a particular pipe supplier, raising potential issues around conflicts of interest and improper influence on engineering decisions. 3) Steve signed off on engineering plans for a major building project even though unlicensed engineers worked on some aspects of the design, violating ethical rules requiring licensed professionals to fully supervise and take responsibility for engineering work.

    Case Analysis in Ethics

    ETHICAL CASE
    ANALYSIS
    CASE 1
    Juan Dela Cruz is a civil engineer by
    profession with special training in
    transportation engineering. His client
    asked him to prepare a house structural
    plan “just like the guy down the road.”
    Dela Cruz obtained the plans, copied
    them and signed, sealed and dated
    them. What fundamental canon/s did
    Dela Cruz violated?
    Case 2
    Jose is a professional civil engineer in the
    Philippines . He designs a complicated pipeline
    system and determines that lined ductile iron
    pipe is the only appropriate material to use to
    protect the health and welfare of the public. His
    extensive analysis determines that PVC, HDPE
    and pre-stressed concrete (PSC) are not
    appropriate for the conditions. Jose’s boss is a CE,
    but loves the guy who sells PSC pipe and changes
    the spec to PSC to help him out. What potential
    issues do Jose or his boss have with their CE
    Licenses? What could happen?
    Case 3
    Steve is the VP of an engineering firm. He has BS in
    Civil engineering with 20 years experience (much of
    it in project management and client relations). He is
    one of two people with a CE license in the firm. The
    firm designs a major building in Makati. His firm
    divides the work into five areas he supervises:
    structural, electrical, process, mechanical and
    architectural. The structural design chief is not
    licensed, nor is the electrical section chief. When
    the project is to be bid and permitted, Steve signs all
    the plans. What ethical problems do you see?
    GROUP ACTIVITY
    Lorenzo was a newly graduate Civil Engineer from a
    prestigious school in Laguna, and passed the CE
    board licensure exam the same year. He was
    recommended by his former professor to a friend who
    owns an engineering firm. He was trained to used a
    licensed structural software which was installed in his
    personal laptop for company use.
    Lorenzo resigned from the firm the following year and
    still continue to use the licensed structural software
    installed in his personal laptop in his own personal
    practice and even in the new company he is now
    working with. What fundamental CE canon/s did
    Lorenzo violated? Explain. (Ethical Theory)
