Description

This course will concentrate on the types of electrical systems, plumbing systems, and HVAC systems found in buildings. Discussion on how these systems are installed in a timber frame structure will be included. A detailed introduction to the common types of building foundations will be covered. Because of the need for construction professionals to be able to fabricate items as part of the installation of various mechanical systems, an introduction to welding is also included. The course will be delivered as a series of five one-credit modules. The modules are: Module 1 – Electrical Systems, Module 2 – Plumbing Systems, Module 3 – Heating, Ventilation, & Air Conditioning Systems, Module 4 – Foundations, and Module 5 – Welding.
