The document outlines 4 group projects on topics related to construction. Project 1 involves investigating soil bearing capacity and methods of improving it. Project 2 covers formwork for structures and types of construction joints. Project 3 is about staircases, their classification and design requirements. Project 4 addresses doors, windows, and their terminology, types, and proper sizing and placement. Groups are assigned and the projects will be presented using PowerPoint with submissions due on May 13th and presentations on May 14th.
