AIM:
This course is devised to make students understand the materials of construction such as
cement, concrete, paints and other surface finishes and their applications in the building
industry.
OBJECTIVES:
To have an understanding of the properties, characteristics, strength, manufacture,
processing and application of materials such as cement, glass, paints and other finishing
materials.
To inform about the properties, characteristics and use of concrete in construction including
its manufacture
To inform about the properties, characteristics and manufacture of various type of concrete
using aggregates.
