UH Manoa College of Engineering Update2013 By Eric R. Matsunaga, Director – Marketing &Public Affairs

In his seventh year at the helm, Dean PeterE. Crouch continues to steer the UH ManoaCollege of Engineering through challengingeconomic times.

Dean Crouch is increasing the College’sfocus on cultivating expanded relationshipswith large and small companies on the U.S.mainland and in Asia. By taking a leading role,the College hopes to link Hawaii with compa-nies that present significant opportunities formore faculty research and whose presencecould potentially play a greater role in thestate’s economic recovery. On a visit toGeneral Motors earlier this year, Dean Crouchand Mechanical Engineering AssistantProfessor Jingjing Li, who worked with GeneralMotors, toured the research facility and openedtalks to explore potential collaborations.Recently, Assistant Dean Song Choi co-chairedthe ISGMA symposium that brought in 600 par-ticipants from 17 countries and ProfessorAmarjit Singh chaired the ISEC-7 conferencethat brought in 260 participants from 44 coun-tries to the islands.

Hawaii is home to the College and it remainsa solid foundation through the generous sup-port of its local industry partners that providebusiness development and career opportuni-ties for students. These include the SummerHigh School Internship Program, EngineeringDay, Junior Expo and High School Expo pro-grams. The College’s highly successful CareerDay, held twice a year, consistently showcasesover 60 local and mainland companies activelyseeking graduates from the College. The Fall2013 Career Day will be held on Wednesday,

Enrollment IncreasesFor the past several years, undergraduate

enrollment has enjoyed significant increases inall engineering disciplines, especially in thenew computer engineering program, mechani-cal engineering and pre-engineering, togetheraccounting for nearly 1200 students lastfall.   Last year, enrollment in computer engi-neering was up 48 percent, mechanical engi-neering and pre-engineering were up 13 per-cent, with an overall increase in the College ofnearly 10 percent.  

According to Bruce Liebert, interim associ-ate dean for Academic Affairs, most STEMmajors have shown an increased enrollmentnationally, particularly for engineering due tothe ability of graduates to be rewarded withhigh-paying jobs upon graduation.

“We anticipated this trend a few years agoand the College increased its emphasis on out-reach programs to middle and high school stu-dents,” said Liebert. “The rise in enrollmentcan also be attributed to the success of theNSF IKE/PEEC UH System initiative to increasethe number of Native Hawaiian students admit-ted into the College.”

Liebert noted that the College’s increasedspending to renovate and equip laboratorieshas made the programs more attractive toentering and existing students. He added,“Providing funding for undergraduates to workwith faculty on research projects has also hada positive effect on student interest in pursuinggraduate studies.”

Engineering Nabs Four Regents’ ScholarsThe College of Engineering is proud to have

been selected as the school of choice for fourRegents Scholars and is home to twoPresidential Scholars.

KNOW YOUR ASCE HISTORYby C.S. Papacostas

Pantheon post ignemLast month (August 2013), I briefly traced

the story of the Patheon Block at the ewa-mauka corner of Honolulu’s Hotel and FortStreets from a yam field in the early 1800s tothe incineration of the Pantheon Stables andSaloon on Feb. 7, 1900 as a precaution againstthe spread of the bubonic plague. By coinci-dence, the lessee and operator of these facili-ties, James Dodd, had passed away on Jan.21, 1900 of dropsy [The Independent,1/22/1900].

Among the building rules adopted by theTerritorial Board of Health (BoH) as a result ofthe plague was to deny building permits in theburned areas until connections to the “sewer-age” system had been secured, obviating thereliance on cesspools. This is not a far-fetchedidea: These days, redevelopment of Honolulu’sMo`ili`ili district is held back due to lack of suf-ficient sewer-system capacity.

In 1896, after years of discussion about theneed for a “sewerage and drainage system”and following an outbreak of cholera, thenotable consulting civil and sanitary engineerRudolph Hering of New York was invited “toreport upon a plan of sewerage system[Hawaiian Gazette, 12/19/1896].” When tenmonths later he announced that his plans werenearly completed, there were “contractors onthe ground who [had] come especially to theIslands to bid on the sewerage contract,”against numerous local contractors [HawaiianStar, 10/23/1897].

Hering proposed separate rather than com-bined sewer and storm-water drainage sys-tems to “give more satisfaction and be muchless expensive.” His estimated cost was$201,934 for the sewer mains and $59,526 forthe storm-water drainage system to serve50,000 people which exceeded the then exist-ing population by about 20,000 [HS, 1/5/1898].Adding the cost of sewer laterals amounted toa total of $478,600, covering “Nuuanu, Fort,King, out to Punahou college and out to InsaneAsylum road [HS, 1/8/1898].” The InsaneAsylum Road was going north off of King Streettown-side of the Kapalama canal.

In short, the sewerage plans contemplatedthat, after screening, “all the waste stuff go bygravity to a well on the shoreline in Kakaako...and that pumping be from this well to deepsea,” via an outfall force main [HG, 1/11/1898].Contracts for a subset of the plan covering thecity’s business district from River to Alapaistreets between Beretania and the waterfrontwere let in June 1899, and by February 1900,one-third of the outfall and two-thirds of the restof the system were completed. Constructiondelays, however, were later encountered partlydue to the effect of the palgue on labor supply,partly as a result of dewatering and excavatingdifficulties in coral, and partly due to lapses ingovernment funding.

In July, L. C. Ables, one of the lessors andliquor licence holders of the burned PantheonSaloon, made several requests to obtain abuilding permit from the BoH but was turneddown because of the required connection tothe yet incomplete sewer system and a relatedconcern about preventing the “promiscuouserection of buildings.” The lessors’ attorney, W.O. Smith, intervened arguing that building per-mits were the responsibility of the Board ofPublic Works, not the BoH, and that it was “notthe fault of the people who wish to build that thesewerage system is not completed [HG,7/13/1900].”

The BoH relented under the condition “thatno steps be taken toward occupying it or build-ing a cesspool until a special committee shouldreport on the matter [ibid.]” On Aug. 23, 1900,according to the Hawaiian Star [HS], the liquorlicense was renewed “for the west end of thenew building” and this necessitated that thebuilding “be partly torn down and remodelledto conform to the new plans in regard to it [HS,

8/25/1900].” The west room, 60 feet from Forton Hotel Street, was given high windows for thesaloon and the Hollister Tobacco Companyarranged to move to the front corner of thebuilding instead [Honolulu Republican (HR),9/6/1900].” Another early occupant of thebuilding was a Shaving Parlor that advertised“hot and cold baths can be had at all times.”

On Sept. 24, the saloon re-opened in the newbuilding that was described as “quite large andlooks neat [HS, 9/25/1900].” Little else I foundabout the structure’s interior, except that “thenew establishment has the beautiful koa barsaved from the fire, the volcano picture, luridand interesting as ever, and a fine, speakinglikeless of the late James Dodd, who wasknown all over the world as the proprietor of theplace [HR, 9/26/1900].” His world-wide reputa-tion had resulted from the patronage of seamenon ships that used to drop anchor at the port.

Another detail about the saloon surfacedlater in a story describing the artistic decor onthe mirrors of several saloon establishments,executed by Tom Sharp, the “signographist.”Pantheon’s had “on the left... a life size paintingof an eagle with the motto ‘The AmericanEagle, Liberty and Truth.’ On the right, a wavingAmerican flag accompanied by the motto ‘Ourflag - Justice and Equality’ [EB, 12/27/1902].”The patriotic theme was in keeping with the olddays when the saloon had won prizes for beingamong the best decorated buildings duringJuly 4th celebrations [e.g., HS, 7/5/1894].

Built by Isaac Newton Hayden, a carpenterby trade, the single-story building was con-structed of bricks manufactured in Nu`uanu

Valley by the Sullivan and Buckley Company[HS, 12/11/1900]. Following some rain dam-age, a real estate agent by the name of JohnEgan blamed the porous nature of thesebricks, saying, “There is a geological defect orrupture in the soil that unfits it for brick making.”An alternate diagnosis came from a tenant of anearby building, E. A. Williams, who said, “It isthe roof gutters... they overflowed and the over-flow emptied on the line of the inner wall anddid the damage.”

Humor was not in short supply either. Forinstance, the saloon displayed a picture of theanti-alcohol, Bar-Room Smasher and memberof the temperance movement Carrie Nationand her hatchet [EB, 5/31,1901], and evenserved “Carrie Nation cocktails made to per-fection [HR, 6/16/1901].”

After a series of real estate transactionsinvolving the undelying land and the improve-ments, papers for the incorporation of the“Pantheon company” were filed in 1908. Thenew hui owned “seven-ninths of the property inthe block bounded by Fort, Hotel, Nuuanu andPauahi street and its object is the improvementof this block [HS, 12/2/1908].” Enabled by leg-islative action in 1903 [The Ind., 4/24/1903],Pauahi Street had by then been extended fromNuuanu to Fort Streets.

On July 19, 1909 the Evening Bulletinannounced, “Architect H. L. Kerr has just com-pleted the plans for a two-story building on theEwa-mauka corner of Hotel and Fort streets,and bids on its construction will shortly becalled for. The building will be of concrete andsteel construction and will be built so as toallow the erection of more stories if necessary.

It will be called the Pantheon Building.”Do you know of a civil engineering accom-
