| Description | One element of the CIVCAL project
Web-based resources containing images, tables, texts and associated data relating to approaches to 'Construction Work Study'.
This is defined as 'A management service based on those techniques, particularly Method Study and Work Measurement, which are used in examining human work in all its contexts, and which lead to systematic investigation of all the resources and factors affecting the efficiency and economy of the situation being reviewed, in order to effect improvement'.
Work Study principles and practice were developed from the early 20th century to improve productivity in general. But there is still great scope for using the techniques demonstrated in this module to improve construction productivity Civil Engineering, construction, geotechnical, building site 1. Teachers can draw examples and illustrative material for lectures and demonstration. 2. Students can use the web-site for research and project work. All required plug-in downloadable from the site Designed for undergradute Civil and Building Engineering students. To enhance the learning and teaching of Civil and Building Engineering through ready access to virtual experiences on a variety of construction sites. 1. To enable virtual site visits. 2. To provide multi-media enhancement of teaching and learning material. 3. To provide supplementary material for courses in Civil and Building Engineering. 4. To provide resource material for students conducting independent studies. |
