Course detail

Project Management of Building Constructions 2

FAST-NVA042Acad. year: 2020/2021

In the subject students will deepen and diversify their knowledge from the subject Project Management of Building Constructions 1. Attention is focused on construction projects from the aspect of buildings contractors. Part of the education is construction and technological preparation dealing with construction process and methods of construction. It is solved the flow method and associated balancing and linking of particular flows. Part of the education it is a proposal of construction site. With the building realization it is connected project controlling, assurance of quality, safety and health protection, protection of environment and recycling of building materials. Students will become familiar with the software Contec.
