Construction Methods, Materials & Systems

Examine how buildings are actually constructed, focusing on structural systems, building envelopes, interiors, and mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) assemblies.

Course content emphasizes constructability, material performance, sequencing, sustainability, and the cost, schedule, and risk implications of system selection.

You develop the practical knowledge required to evaluate construction approaches, coordinate trades, and make informed project decisions in real-world conditions.

This course is ideal for learners seeking a deeper understanding of building systems, constructability, and the operational implications of material and method selection.
