CM 2200 - Building Construction Methods2 lecture hours 2 lab hours 3 credits Course Description This course provides familiarity with the crew labor and equipment activities typically applied in building construction. Emphasis is placed on construction techniques involving the more common materials, as student in the AE 1231 Building Construction Materials course. Laboratories highlight teamwork for the crew labor tasks applied to common assemblies and drawings of the architectural details necessary for their proper construction. (prereq: AE 1231 ) (coreq: AE 1001 ) Course Learning Outcomes Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- Demonstrate working knowledge of how the CSI MasterFormat organizes information about building materials and components for site, concrete, masonry, metals and wood
- Demonstrate working knowledge of how material properties and applications affect construction activities
- Demonstrate working knowledge of building materials assembly to develop design details for the effective application of materials and components
- Demonstrate working knowledge of graphical techniques used to depict information on drawings
- Demonstrate working knowledge of common building construction means, methods, and processes
- Demonstrate the requirements for effective team leadership, teamwork, and collective effort
- Apply the concepts on how to think and analyze problems, not just what to think
