Construction Technology II [ QSB 1524 ]
Lecturer : Mr. Chiew Seng Khoon
This module will enable the development and establishment of a base knowledge of the fundamental principles of design and technology. Such base knowledge will enable students to appreciate the decisions made on design, functional element, selection and the rational and economic use of resources. It also explains the fundamentals of piled foundations, deep excavation, formworks, scaffoldings, shoring and underpinning, partition and suspended ceilings, portal frames, precast concrete and steel roof trusses.
From what I've learned in this module, I'm glad that I'm able to interpret the logical sequences of concepts and alternative construction practices, demonstrating the variation in material applications. Furthermore, apply current legislation and standard with particular attention to safety and correct use of materials. I've also learned to analyse construction nature problems systematically and synthesise solution through critical evaluation.
Provide an overview of the concept & knowledge on the actual construction practice at the site
Develop the ability to apply the health and safety measure necessary for the construction industry
Develop the ability to apply the complete constructional procedures of the various types of building
with suitable materials and design
