Overview of Assessment
This unit will be assessed in the classroom environment using holistic assessment, based on typical workplace activities.
Assessment will comprise :
- A project covering elements 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 comprising a two-storey reinforced concrete office building using industry drawings.
- A two-hour mid-semester examination covering elements 1,2 & 3
- A two-hour end-of-semester examination covering elements 4, 5 & 6
