A course on building construction covers the principles, materials, and methods used in constructing different types of structures. It introduces the fundamentals of design, site preparation, foundation systems, structural components, and finishing techniques. The course typically explores construction materials such as concrete, steel, wood, and masonry, along with their properties, applications, and sustainability considerations. Key topics include building codes and regulations, construction management, cost estimation, and safety protocols. Modern construction techniques, such as prefabrication and green building technologies, may also be discussed. Students learn about load-bearing structures, framing systems, roofing, and insulation, as well as plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems. Practical applications, case studies, and site visits may be incorporated to provide hands-on experience. The course aims to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed to participate in the building industry, whether in design, project management, or construction execution.
