In this course, students learn to evaluate selected sets of building materials. Additionally, students will be required to apply their analytical skills to the selections of materials for a selected project. Emphasis will be given to the relationship between design and construction. Although the analytical process to be taught can be universally applied in material selections, the focus will be on those materials and techniques commonly used in the Central Atlantic Region of the United States. The principles of specification writing and existing CSI standards are introduced and applied on specific assignments.
