Objectives
To familiarise students with the various construction processes used in civil engineering works, including techniques, function of building components, execution sequences and construction equipments. Detailed and illustrated description of the processes, including advantages and disadvantages of its usage, will enable students to master process control and make informed decisions as future professionals.
Program
1-Preparatory work for construction (demolition, earth movements and lowering of water table). 2-Foundations (direct, indirect and caves). 3- Earth-Retaining structures (provisional, definitive and anchorages). 4-Formwork (traditional and standardized). 5-Building structures (concrete, wood and steel). 6- Exterior walls using conventional methods (in Portugal) . 7-Roof structures (concrete and wood). 8-Special construction processes 9-Prefabrication. 10-Innovative construction systems
