Lesson 2.2.5

Construction Staging

Lesson Overview

 

In this lesson we will introduce different strategies for how a site is prepared for the construction process. This includes construction staging - when, where and how materials arrive on the site - as well as the sequence of construction processes and the coordination of the various tradespeople and workflow on the site.

Lesson Goals

 

• Have a grasp of the staging process for construction in wood, steel, concrete, and masonry.

• Realize the differences implied by construction in-situ, pre-fabricated or combined.
