3)CIVIL ENGINEERING MATERIALS
这个科目是主攻concrete的strength。让我们更清楚concrete的来源和功能。这科是分为lectures和laboratory的。在lectures方面,我们所需学的是所有有cement,aggregates和steel的功能和资料。cement是比较有关chemical的东西和种类。aggregates就可以分为两种,fine和course。fine gain的soil主要是clay和silt。而course gain的是sand和gravel。在lab里,我们会把soil用sieve shaker来分类的。此外,我们还需知道steel和timber的东西。在lab要学会的东西是如何制造出concrete。用多少cement,aggregate和水的分量,那去concrete mixer搅,来做多个cube。分别在一天,7天,14天,28天来test它的strength之类的东西。它的过程真的可以学到很多的东西。曾经有个lecturer和我说过,我们在lab里做lab test是外面都找不到这样便宜的了,因为我们做出的concrete cube是要用昂贵的机器来test的。价钱介于几十千到几百千左右。在外面的一个test是要几千块左右。
Cement: types of cement, Portland cement, production, composition, characteristics, tests on cement properties. Aggregates: classification, characteristics, gradation, strength, tests on aggregate properties. Concrete: concrete mix, tests for fresh concrete mix, workability of fresh concrete, shotcrete, concrete admixtures, strength of concrete, aspects of hardened concrete, tests for hardened concrete. Bituminous materials: asphalt refining, uses and properties; asphalt cement physical tests, asphalt cement grading system, rheological properties and pavement performance. Steel: steel classifications, production, properties, types of steel used in the construction industry. Timber: timber classification, production, properties, types of timber used in the construction industry.
