Course detail
Technology of Constructions I
FAST-TW01Acad. year: 2018/2019
The task of the construction engineering is not only to plan the building correctly but also to execute it in high quality and reasonably. The topic of construction execution is part of the Construction Technology field. The technology deals with methods and procedures of an optimum building process execution. In order to be modeled technologically, time-wise and in resource aspects, optimized and successfully controlled, the processes must be studied first.
The course includes the study of the construction processes connected with the primary construction production. This means construction demarcation, technological regulation process and connection during the individual technological stages of earthworks, superstructure and subgrade construction and facing mythe. They solve its technological, spatial and time structures, sequence, workplace preparation, mutual continuation, duality and environmental requirements.

Learning outcomes of the course unit
In the duration of the course the students will acquire theoretical knowledge from the field of production process modeling , they will use detailed instructions to apply them in a case study, they will use the instructions for outcome preparation and they will elaborate:
Technical regulations for earthworks, cubic capacity calculation for topsoil removal, ditch excavation and groove excavation, proposal for building machinery use for the earthworks, evaluation of the machinery suitability, mapping a scheme of machinery for the topsoil removal movement on the construction site, ditch and groove excavation, time plan for the earthworks.
Technological regulations for the shallow foundations, framework foundation cut in traditional foundation including the description of the individual parts of the framework.
Technological regulations for walling and related designs – floor plan, one floor cut depicting the walling procedure, scaffolding localization, material storage, time plan for walling.
Technological regulations for construction of the reinforced concrete floor slab in a system framework, framework design (floor plan, cut through the framework construction), selected construction details.
Technological regulations of the roof trussing with the proposal for wood protection against fire and vermin – schematic draft of the roof trussing and its installation procedure, joints details.
Prerequisites
Co-requisites
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The course is divided into lectures and seminars.
In the seminars the students will be given individual assignments and they will work on their projects. The outcomes will be checked by controlled and individual consultations with the teacher. The seminars will include two field trips on constructions, which are nearly finished.
