Construction Surveys and Layouts

The directed learning hours consist on the one hand in teaching theoretical classes where the professor does a brief exposition for introducing the general learning objectives related with the basic concepts of the subject. Afterwards and by means of practical exercises the professor tries to motivate and involve the students so that they can participate actively in their learning.

It is used support material in detailed educational plan format, by ATENEA. Learning objectives by contents, concepts, examples, evaluation activities and directed learning schedule and bibliography. There also will be problem classes (medium group) where the students work, by means of the resolution of exercises or numerical problems, related with the specific learning objectives of each content of the subject.

During these exercises sessions it is pretended to incorporate some generic competences, like teamwork

The last directed learning hours consist on do two fieldwork activities which allow to develop basic abilities in the use of topographic tools like the total station and the spirit level, as well as the main topographic layout works.

After each session out of class works will be proposed, individually or in groups.

There also have to be considered the rest of the autonomous self-learning hours like the ones dedicated to the guided readings, the resolution of the proposed problems and the self-learning questionnaires of the different contents by virtual campus ATENEA.

Objectives

At the end of the course, the students should be able to:

• Ability to use the studied topographic tools with the sufficient agility, for executing topographic surveys with layouts and geometric control in the construction.
• To do the most common office work in topography like: radiations and itineraries, areas and coordinates calculation, alignment conditions, longitudinal and perpendicular profiles, and cubing of the earthmoving.
• Generic competence: Teamwork.
