Course description An understanding of the terms used by the Civil Engineer enables the Surveyor to understand the mind of the Civil Engineer, which is vital in any proposal. The Engineer should not have to translate what he/she requires into survey terminology as this would still lead to misunderstandings between the two. The Surveyor should...Read More

Course description This course provides students with essential knowledge on the properties, use of some of the most important materials used in civil engineering, including soil, aggregate, concrete, and geotechnical materials.   Objectives To explain what materials the Civil Engineer uses, their characteristics and how they can be manipulated. To make the student aware of...Read More

Course description This course uses what has been learned in courses CES1201, CES1202 and CES1204 in combination in field work The level is the most used instrument in Civil Engineering Surveying and the most usual choice for height control. The leveller needs to be absolutely reliable. Much practice is needed, as the work must be...Read More

Course description Following from the introductory course, this course concentrates on the positioning of data found in the field in a three dimensional environment, and positioning it numerically and at scale on paper in a two dimensional format. It has a decided bias towards measuring relative heights (levelling) as the level is the easiest instrument...Read More
