Learning outcomes of the course unit
Students learn about the structure of itemized budget and its further division into basic and minor itemized budget. Students have understanding of the calculation formula and therefore are able to calculate new items. Students are capable of processing a budget according to basic budget rules. The student learns the skill to work with BUILpower software designed for budget calculations. Other skills acquired are the principles of network analysis, the ability to create a network graph and calculate the critical path. The acquired complex skill allows the student to create a construction technology model of the building process, the use of many different links concerning the modelling of the building process. Students learn how to work with CONTEC software.
Prerequisites
Excellent knowledge of common building process technologies, at least some knowledge of special technologies, knowledge and understanding of project documentation and its content.
Co-requisites
Principles of construction contract project management, quality assurance, solving of construction technology project, knowledge of construction equipment and their suitable use, performance of the construction equipment and principles of their productivity.
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The basic teaching methods are: lectures with the explanation of basic principles, methodology, problems and their solutions in the form of presentations with demonstrations emphasizing critical points. Follow-up seminars focus on practical use of the knowledge acquired during lectures. It consists of individual projects under the guidance of the tutor.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
The main criterion for credit is active participation during the seminars, i.e. no more than two absences during the course, and all the tasks assigned individually must be properly fulfilled. Students must submit an itemized budget of a given technological phase in the building process and a time plan reflected as a network graph using computer tools.
