Course Content
The concept of production system. Basic elements of a production system; resources, process, product. Obligations; system environment, objectives, criteria. Changes in production systems from singular to plural, from small scale to large scale, from simple to complex, from general to specialized in terms of resources, process, product and organization in parallel with social and technological developments. Characteristics of the production sector; the role of product and demand characteristics in shaping production systems. The relationship between technology and organization. Evaluation of production systems in terms of resource utilization/speed/quality. Principles of construction system selection.
Objectives of the Course
Analyzing all the factors affecting building production process by system approach, establising the relationship of building system/building production system concepts in practical and conceptual dimensions, teaching basic building and building production systems along with their product and process characteristics.
