Course detail

Selected sections of building technology processes - GI

FAST-CW55Acad. year: 2011/2012

The course covers study of selected construction processes related with realization of underground constructions, building and engineering constructions. Technology, space and time structure, requirements on the site preparation, principles of execution of construction process as well as quality requirements are explained.
The substantial part of the course is aimed at execution of underground structures where technologies of special foundation of constructions for execution of excavated underground structures are given, together with overview of classical and modern tunnelling systems and arrangements, machines and equipment for underground constructions.

Learning outcomes of the course unit

The students will master the objective of the Selected Issues of Technology of Construction Processes course, they acquire knowledge of the realization of the selected building processes of underground, building and engineering constructions. This knowledge enables subsequent study of the time planning, modelling, optimisation and rational management of site operations.

Prerequisites

The students should have mastered the basic knowledge of geology, geo-mechanics, construction foundation, planning of underground and transport constructions.

Co-requisites
