course aims in Estonian
Õppeaine eesmärgiks on anda üliõpilastele teavet ehituses kasutatavate mineraalsete sideainete tootmisest, nende kasutusomadustest ning nende baasil valmistatavate tehiskivide ja ehitussegude koostamisest, tehnoloogiast ja nende võimalikest põhinäitajatest.
course aims in English
Basic knowledge about mineral binders used in building process: raw materials, technology of production, control of quality, testing, standards and usage in the mortars, concrete and various artificial stones. Properties and technology of materials based on mineral binding materials.
learning outcomes in the course in Est.
Aine sooritanud üliõpilane:
- orienteerub mineraalsete sideainete valdkonnas;
- tunneb nende koostisosi, põhiomadusi ja kasutamise võimalusi;
- on võimeline piisaval tasemel mõistma sideaine-baasiliste ehitussegude ja betoonidega seotud probleeme ja tegema valikuid;
- tunneb normatiivdokumente ja oskab lahendada projekteerimise ja ehitustehnoloogilisi probleeme nende kasutamisel;
- tunneb valdkonnaga seotud keskkonnaprobleeme ja jätkusuutliku ehitamise põhimõtteid.
learning outcomes in the course in Eng.
Student having completed the course:
- has knowledge about types of the various mineral binding materials: raw materials, production technology, composition, properties, terms of their usage and technologies
- understands and is familiar with standards and normative documents;
- is able to solve building technology issues of concrete and other mineral binding based materials;
- knows about ecology and sustainable development.
