Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

Goal of the subject is to provide knowledge to the university student, so he/she will be able to understand given points at issue good enough to analyse its content, to realise synthesis of the acquired information and its evaluation. This sciential base allow student to compare results of the synthesis, propose modifications and solve the problems of the deposits of building raw materials.

Summary

The definition of the term “building raw material”. Natural stone and its classification. Raw materials for the production of artificial aggregate. Raw materials for the production of mortar materials and binders (lime, cement, plaster). Technical properties of building materials. Major building raw materials (intrusive rocks, vein igneous rocks, extrusive rocks, sedimentary rocks, metamorphites). An overview of the Czech base of building raw materials and their position in the Czech mineral resources. A brief overview of European building raw materials. The importance of building raw materials for the balance of payment of the Czech foreign trade.
