Objective
Providing students with the knowledge from SW support utilization for planning and management of the construction projects and modern construction organization manners by planning, engineering and supplier companies. Application of ČR and USA SW.
Knowledge
After successful passing of the course the students are able to operate and practically apply the available SW tools for construction preparation and erection, i.e. to elaborate a concept of itemized budget and bill of quantities; to draw, match and optimise a detailed time schedule of the building; to elaborate and optimise the diagrams of resources consumption and to make their balances for more projects.
