CMA544: CIVIL WORKS CONSTRUCTION

About this Course

The course's overarching goal is to give students enough knowledge and comprehension of the processes involved in building infrastructure and the effects these processes have on the environment. With a focus on technology, element installation, and creative building techniques, the course covers the elements of roads, airfields, bridges, tunnels, dams, and marine constructions. Additionally, it improves skill, behaviour, and dedication to environment, health, and safety.
