Mode of study

Not applicable.

Department

Institute of Technology, Mechanisation and Construction Management (TST)

Entry knowledge

The student should have knowledge in the area of structure technology and design at undergraduate level. The student should have mastery of Microsoft office applications.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

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

Aims

To provide the students with knowledge of application of software for building technological designing, planning and management of the building structures, utilities and transport constructions management. Computer aid enables elaboration of the bid for the execution of work, time scheduling, pre-production preparation, production preparation and creation of operative plans. Construction time and cost planning are based on data of calculations and capacity standards. A part of the execution management is controlling of the building contract.
The students will master the objective of the course consisting in extending the yet acquired user knowledge of available software for construction technological designing and management of building constructions, utilities and transport constructions. Then the students can apply the acquired knowledge in pre-production, production and erection stages of these constructions in practice.

Syllabus

1. Application of software for building production planning and management of building operations. Joint ÚRS (main building operations and subsidiary production) and SPCM price lists. 2. Classification of production and data basis of ASPE and ÚRS system. Branch classification of building structures and jobs of road and railways constructions. 3. Budget estimates and creation of calculated quotation in the ASPE system. 4. Time schedule. Monitoring of the execution by contractor´s manager. Creation of the job list. Expenditures controlling. 5. Computer aid and modelling of construction preparation and realization in CONTEC system by means of building-technological network chart. Data links and date take over from the bills of quantities, budgets and production calculations into the building-technological designs in CONTEC system. 7. Activities in network charts. Links between activities and building readiness. Time, resource and capacity planning. Cost planning. Operative records keeping. Time schedule up-dating. Outputs – diagrams of resource demands as a basis for the site plant plan. 8. Computer aid of the links – control and inspection plan for the technology analysis and time schedule, environmental plan for other documents of the building-technological design.

Exercise

26 hod., compulsory

Teacher / Lecturer

Syllabus

1. Introduction, materials, operating rules of the PC room, credit requirements. 2. Introduction to budgets and work with BUILDpower software: starting an order, starting a contract, setting up a building facility, budget, budgetary process, different types of items, work schedule. 3. Introduction to time management and work with CONTEC software tool: project set up, creation of time plan with gradual modelling with the use of standardized network graphs, relations, optimization according to the availability of resources. Individual work – modelling of the chosen construction to an extent of 20 items focusing on branching of the network graph. 4. Individual works – compilation of itemized budget of the model construction in the range of 20 items focused on the use of different sections, conversion to CONTEC, creation of a construction technological model on the basis of the converted data. 5. Conversion of budget created during seminar 4 from the BUILDpower into Microsoft Project, conversion of the time schedule seen in seminar 4 from CONTEC into Microsoft Project. 6. Microsoft project program – setting before use, object modelling, data conversion DURATION/WORK/UNITS, bond input, source input, limitations 7. Creation of technological standards and time schedule in the Microsoft Project environment with the use of makra and programming of chart (table) 8. End of course test, credits after successful completion of test
