Concrete Technology 2 (5 ECTS)

Objective

After the course the student has the knowledge of:
- Execution quality and authority requirements of concrete structures both in-situ and pre-cast element construction
- Execution of pre-cast elements and installation
- Concrete structures and controlling of drying and shrinkage
- Concrete works (in-situ) design and management
- Concreting plan preparation and execution records
- Concrete floors; concreting and quality requirements
- Surface finish requirements and factors affecting the surface finish quality

- Management of concrete works on demanding concrete works

Content

- Refresh content from the course Concrete Technology 1
- Execution quality and authority requirements of concrete structures,
pre-cast element construction
- Concrete type selection based on structure and conditions (environment, weather)
- Low carbonite concrete and how use it on pre-cast element construction factories
- Formwork technology
- Concreting in cold weather; required actions
- Concreting of floors; required actions
- Concreting with special methods
- Special concretes
- Concreting plan preparation
- Excursions to in-situ buildings sites and pre-cast element factories
- Course “Concrete Technology 2” forms together with course “Concrete Technology 1” the knowledge package required for concrete works management on demanding concrete structures.
