Course 4 - Building Site Management and Building Process with Timber
Introduction
This course focuses on the management aspects of timber construction
projects, covering the entire construction process from mapping and correlation
of parameters to logistics, cost estimation, digital processes, and
sustainability considerations. Participants will learn about the installation
chronology of load-bearing construction elements on the building site, moisture
management, cost estimation for building life cycle assessment, BCF (Building
Information Modeling, Construction, Facility Management) workflows, logistics,
and best-practice examples of large-scale international timber projects. The
course also emphasizes the importance of sustainability concepts, including
recyclability and dismantling strategies with timber.
Learning objectives:
By the end of the course, the students will be able to:
- Map the timber construction process, understand its stages, and identify the key parameters that impact the project's success.
- Understand the installation chronology of load-bearing construction elements on the building site and ensure proper sequencing for a smooth construction workflow.
- Estimate costs for building life cycle assessment, considering dimensions, transport, montage, logistics, and the overall economic viability of timber construction projects.
- Understand sustainability concepts related to timber construction, including recyclability and dismantling strategies, and integrate them into project planning and execution.
- Understand the management of timber construction projects, while considering environmental, economic, and logistical factors.
3. Building systems and Site quality control
Building systems and site quality control are integral aspects of construction that ensure the successful implementation and performance of a building project. Building systems encompass various elements, including structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems, which must be carefully designed and integrated to work harmoniously. Quality control on the construction site involves implementing rigorous inspection and testing procedures to verify that materials, workmanship, and installations meet the specified standards and regulatory requirements. Adherence to quality control measures during the construction process helps identify and rectify potential issues, ensuring the safety, durability, and functionality of the building systems and overall project.
