227-0416 – Realization Transport Constructions (RDS)

The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the basic problems of the preparation and implementation of linear structures, with emphasis on special features existing in the process of building, maintenance, modernization and repair of linear structures in relation to technology implementation. Includes introduction to examples of the application of basic legal titles and technical standards in construction for linear structures. After graduating student can describe and solve basic problems of performance and deployment of construction machinery, building technology and construction-technological designing linear structures in both the construction phase and during reconstruction, operation and maintenance of linear structures, including principles for the design and implementation of the the presence of mining activities in flood plains, etc. Students will acquire basic skills to formulate problems, to build an elementary solution design, to apply knowledge and skills in solving basic problems usable in the preparation and implementation of transport and linear structures.

The course deals with pre-production and production stages including documentation for pre-production and production preparation of linear constructions, their specifics, with time planning problems, with elements of building and technological designing, with documentation of time plans and also with diagnostics, repair of faults and maintenance of transport constructions, legislation, standards and systems to ensure the safety of works in the construction of transport structures.
