The Course Curriculam
Week 1: Introduction to Construction Planning
Overview of construction project life cycle
Understanding project stakeholders and their roles
Key principles of construction planning: Objectives, constraints, and milestones.
Hands-on Practice: Develop a basic project plan using Microsoft Excel.
Week 2: Scheduling and Resource Allocation
Understanding Gantt charts and critical path methods (CPM).
Basics of resource allocation: Manpower, materials, and machinery.
Introduction to project management tools (e.g., MS Project, Primavera P6).
Hands-on Practice: Create a project schedule using Gantt charts.
Week 3: Cost Estimation and Budgeting
Fundamentals of construction cost estimation.
Types of costs: Direct, indirect, and overheads
Preparing a budget and tracking expenses during a project
Hands-on Practice: Develop a cost estimation sheet for a small residential project.
Week 4: Risk Management and Quality Control
Identifying and mitigating risks in construction projects.
Basics of quality control and assurance in construction.
Case studies on project failures due to poor planning.
Hands-on Practice: Develop a risk assessment matrix for a project.
Week 5: Introduction to Structural Analysis
Basics of structural engineering: Forces, loads, and stresses
Understanding structural systems: Beams, columns, trusses, and frames.
Load distribution and analysis (Dead load, live load, wind load, etc.).
Hands-on Practice: Calculate simple beam reactions using manual methods
Week 6: Structural Analysis Tools and Software
Introduction to structural analysis software (e.g., STAAD.Pro, ETABS)
Modeling structures and applying loads in software.
Hands-on Practice: Analyze a simple truss structure using STAAD.Pro.
Week 7: Advanced Structural Analysis Concept
