Education and training competencies or experience A National Diploma in Civil Engineering and 2 years' industry specific experience or at least 10 years industry specific experience Legal Requirements: Compliance with the OHS ACT and relevant labour legislation Compliance to SHERQ 9.4 Exemptions None 10. 641403002-KM-10, Introduction to construction materials, NQF Level 3, Credits 4 10.1 Purpose of the Knowledge Modules The main focus of the learning in this knowledge module is to build an understanding of the introduction to construction materials found in civil engineering construction. This theoretical basis will prepare learners with fundamental knowledge required in the practice in a construction environment. The learning contract time, which is the time that reflects the required duration of enrolment for this module, is at least 5 days. The learning will enable learners to demonstrate an understanding of: KM-10-KT01: Properties and characteristics aggregates, crushed stones and natural soils and gravels (12%) KM-10-KT02: Properties and characteristics of bituminous materials and asphalt (16%) KM-10-KT03: Properties and characteristics of Cementous materials (cement, lime, concrete and slag etc.) (12%) KM-10-KT04: Properties and characteristics of concrete (12%) KM-10-KT05: Properties and characteristics various types of pipes (steel, UPC, HDPE, concrete etc.) (12%) KM-10-KT06: Properties and characteristics of steel (12%) KM-10-KT07: Properties and characteristics of timber (12%) KM-10-KT08: Properties and characteristics of bricks, blogs and pavers (12%) 10.2 Guidelines for Topics 10.2.1. KM-10-KT01: Properties and characteristics aggregates, crushed stones and natural soils and gravels (12%) Topic elements to be covered include: KT0101 Concept of aggregates for concrete, asphalt and seal work KT0102 Concept of crushed stone materials KT0103 Concept of natural gravels and soils for pavement layers and fill Internal Assessment Criteria and Weight IAC0101 Explain the concepts of graded and single sized aggregates and their application IAC0102 Explain the concepts of classes of crushed stone materials
