Students willbe introduced to building constructionsystem through the study of buildingelements such as foundation, floors,walls, roofs, staircases and ramps,doors and windows as well as surfacefinishes. The topic also covers basicsite analysis and preparation worksprior to the commencement ofbuilding construction works.DDG812 Technical DrawingsStudents will be taught to applySS CP 83 and use of 2D and 3Ddocumentation tools to create andproduce drawings of reinforcedconcrete and structural steel buildingelements.DMT904 Mathematics 1This course covers topics includingalgebra, factors and factoring,quadratic equations, functions,graphs, trigonometry identities andequations, right triangles and vectors,linear equation, differentiation,exponents, logarithms, complexnumbers.DDG808 CAD 2Students will be taught how to usecomputer aided design program toproduce 3D models for presentationand visualisation. Students should beable to generate 3D models using 3Dcommands to demonstrate effectiverendering and animation.DDG858 CADStudents will be taught how to usecomputer aided design/draftingprogram to produce drawingsfor construction and detailing.Students should be able to generatearchitectural plans using 2Dcommands and drawing tools.DBS205 Building ServicesThis course covers the workingprinciples and components of varioustypes of building services includingplumbing, sanitary, fire protection,air-conditioning and mechanicalventilation and electrical services.Students will also learn how tointerpret the drawings for suchbuilding services.DPD877 Life Skills A &DPD878 Life Skills BThis course aims to equip studentswith skills and techniques that couldhelp them set personal goals in theirlives, develop a healthy self esteemand project a positive and professional14Diploma in Construction Information Technology
