After successful completion of the course, students are able to:

• to explain the organizational structure of a construction site
• to design the construction process within the work preparation
• to calculate the economic success of a construction project
• to create a accounting
  
• describe the elements of the site equipment
• to plan the site equipment for a project

The focus in this course is put to be confronted with the solving of detailed problems in dimensioning and calculating the site installation as well as managerial functions during the production process. Methods of dimensioning elements of the site installation, assignment of personnel and machinery and conception and execution of selected examples will be presented as well as practical exercises in calculation will be trained. The important formulation, presentation and interpretation of the economic profit of the site is the completing focal point. A.) Basic conditions construction industry in Austria and Europe B.) Site organization Participants in the construction process Acquisition, calculation, tender, financing Joint ventures Site management C.) Planning the construction process process engineering time scheduling personnel resource scheduling machinery resource scheduling D.) Site installation planning basics elements of installation examples E.) Technical construction operation on site concrete processing and workmanship F.) Economic construction operation on site commercial agenda measuring and billing statement of economic facts G.) Examples of practical calculation building construction civil engineering road construction bridge building material conditioning

The methodological structure of this LVA is as follows:     

• Lecture part in attendance 
• Self-study of selected subchapters of the lecture scope     
• 3 presented exercises
• 3 exercises to hand in via TUWEL
• 1 written review of the exercise success in the form of a written exam
• Presentation on a selected topic
• Oral exam

Zuordnung im Masterstudium Bauingenieurwesen (Studienkennzahl: 066 505):
Modul 1 der Vertiefungsrichtung Bauprozessmanagement; (BM)
Modul 3 der anderen Vertiefungsrichtungen

Proof of performance is due to the presence, exercises, exam (written) and student presentations. In total 100 points can be reached. Finally, an oral examination will take place. To participate in this examination, the following criteria must be met:

• reached at least 51 points
• attendance is mandatory at the first lecture date. A non-appearance leads to deregistration from the LVA
• Exercises completed and delivered on time
• In order to complete the LVA in a positive way, every exercise has to be handed in.
• participated in written exam and got at least 18 out of 45 possible points (duration: 60 min)
• presentation held (max. 2 students per group, 5 minutes per person) presentation topics will be issued in the course of the VO
• Registration for the oral examination takes place after the presentation days via TUWEL

After the first performance, the LVA is binding part. Thus, an assessment is made at the end of the LVA.

Note: The times for the presentations and the oral exams may deviate from the indicated time in the TISS, depending on the number of students.
