Course detail

Technology of Constructions 2

FAST-BW004Acad. year: 2024/2025

The subject follows on from Technology of Constructions 1 and covers the area of building processes, linked with the erection of constructions, interior and finishing work.
Principles of the manufacturing, transportation and storage of prefabricated components. Preparedness of the construction site for assembly. Procedures used in the assembly of reinforced concrete and steel structures. Issues connected with interior and finishing processes, principles governing their performance, sequence of activities, preparedness for construction at the place of work, mutual relationships and their coordination. Quality and safety requirements, and requirements with regard to the environment.

Entry knowledge

Knowledge of building design principles.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

Extent and forms are specified by guarantor’s regulation updated for every academic year.

Aims

The course objective is to teach the students to make a technological regulation of the selected partial construction processes of rough construction and finishing works and to be able to use these elaborated documents in practice for the construction execution.
By mastering the objectives of the Technology of Constructions course II the students acquire principal knowledge of partial technology stages of the building operations process, in particular of some carcass superstructure processes and interior and finishing processes.
