|
This course covers the basic processes of construction estimating, including types of estimates, estimate components, and pricing techniques. It also will provide participants with the skills for adjusting estimates, making estimates on labor and materials, and more. Individuals in this course will gain an understanding of this component of managing projects effectively.

The word "blueprint" makes us think of white line drawings on a deep blue background showing beautiful old buildings, or ships, or historic city plans. This introductory course visits the development of blueprints within the construction industry, and shows the student what to expect in a contemporary construction drawing set, and how to understand scale and symbols in drawings. There is hands-on experience with drawing simple scaled drawings. The later lessons in this course review the place of CADD and more advanced 3-D and intelligent building modeling as "blueprints" morph in the world of e-technology.
|
This course focuses on occupational safety and health in the work zone. Students will be able to identify precarious situations on the job, and ensure that appropriate interventions take place.
|
This course provides an understanding of construction methods, building systems, and materials and equipment selection.
