Course abstract

Goal of the course is to elaborate assembly design of industrial building. The design documentation consists of written project manual and graphical drawings. Written project manual includes: specification lists of parts in assembly and lifting equipment, construction work organization – timetable/ scheduling; calculations of manpower, temporary buildings, consumables and technical recourses, project technical – economical costs; assembly quality and labour protection assessment. Graphical drawings: detailed technological schemas of assembly works, construction site plan.

Learning outcomes and their assessment

After studying the course the student will obtain:
• Knowledge at basic concepts in the development of construction plans and detailed technological schemas of assembly works, choice of technology and construction method, defining work tasks, defining precedence relationships among activities, estimating activity durations, estimating resource requirements for work activities. Defending the course project.
• Skills – ability to design Construction Plans and technological schemas, including the choice of technology, the definition of work tasks, the estimation of the required resources and durations for individual tasks, and the identification of any interactions among the different work tasks. Defending the course project.
• Competence in the development of appropriate alternatives for facility design, choices of appropriate technology and methods for construction, scheduling of construction activities, estimating the resources required by the work tasks, defining sequences for construction activities. Defending the course project.

Course Content(Calendar)

1. Introduction - description of the construction object (volume, application, location, technical design). 2. Determination of work volume and composition (specifications of the elements to be assembled). 3. Selection of grabbing accessories and determination of mounting parameters. 4. Determination of mounting parameters by graphical and analytical method. 5. Selection of assembly methods and constructions according to the parameters of construction assembly. 6. Technical and Economic Assessment of Accepted Assembly Methods, Cranes. 7. Building Process Execution Techniques and Technological Sequence. Workload Calculation. 8. Technological calculation of construction process duration. 9. The cyclogram of the assembly process and the schedule of the workers' movement. 10. Description of techniques adopted in assembly work and their technological sequence. 11. Calculation of required warehouses, temporary administrative and household buildings. 12. Detection and design of hazardous areas. 13. Describe the required materials and technical resources. 14. Quality control of assembly work. Occupational health and safety measures. 15. Development of technological maps of individual assembly works. Construction master plan design. 16. Calculation of technical and economic indicators of the project.

Requirements for awarding credit points

At least 80% of all classes must be attended.
Independently develop and defend: "Column assembly technological map linked to the object under construction and specific local conditions" and course project "Assembly works".

Description of the organization and tasks of students’ independent work

Independently develop, design and successfully defend: "Column assembly technological map linked to the object under construction and specific local conditions" and course project "Assembly Works".

Criteria for Evaluating Learning Outcomes

The evaluation of the course project takes into account the participation in the classes and the regular development of the course project (30%), as well as the presentation of the course project and the student's knowledge in defense (70%). The student is able to confirm the acquired knowledge, skills and competence on the issues learned in the course plan, defending the independently developed project and answering the control questions.
