Institute of Technology, Mechanisation and Construction Management (TST)

Acquisition of basic information from the area of ecology and occupational safety in the construction industry. An overview of the main global environmental issues and sustainable development. General knowledge regarding environmental care. Environmental management and related regulations. Students will also gain knowledge from the area of outdoor acoustics, including the skills needed to operate “Hluk+” noise analysis SW. Also, students will learn about health protection and occupational safety at construction sites. They will gain knowledge about the preparation of an OHS plan. They will become acquainted with the management of building and assembly work in accordance with the requirements for the protection of workers’ health on construction sites, the environment, and the health of the population living around the building site.

Knowledge related to structural design, knowledge of the concept behind the design of construction site facilities, knowledge of common technical regulations, basic knowledge from the field of ecology and OHS.

Knowledge of the production of construction planning documentation.

In relation to the diploma work assignment of a student

Not applicable.

The course is taught through lectures, practical classes and self-study assignments. Attendance of lectures is recommended and is compulsory for practical lessons. Apart from creating protocols, students will also present their seminar paper.

Attendance of practical classes is monitored, and consultations regarding protocols take place in practical classes throughout the semester – evaluation of noise pollution, seminar paper on an ecological topic, OHS risk plan.
