Spring - 2021
Dr. Amr S. ElGohary
Dr. Ebrahim Goda
Course Goal & objectives
The course focuses on the relation between the used building

Materials and the related adequate construction Systems.
Students study the basic elements of a building (roofs, floors and walls) and
are introduced to different materials (reinforced concrete, wood and steel)
for both prefabricated and on-site construction and finishing of these basic
building elements.
The course aims to:

Build students knowledge of the basic elements of a building (walls,
floors and roofs) and to enhance their understanding of different
materials, methods of construction and finishing.
