Course objectives
1. Introducing the nature and nature of the earth's components, earth's mantles and rocky materials.
2. Learn about the composition of the earth, the crust, the mantle, the core, and the geological cycle (the rock cycle in nature).
3. Study of minerals and rocks. Formation and classification of minerals. Crystalline form of minerals, mineral identification.
4. Weathering, Erosion and Soil Formation
5. Studying topographic and geological maps. The importance of topographic maps in civil engineering.
In this course, the student learns basic computer programs and how to use them in engineering work. During this course, three programs within the Microsoft Office suite of programs are explained, which are Word, PowerPoint, and Excel, with a focus on Excel and how to use it in programming engineering matters that the engineer deals with.
Provide the student with basic information about the science of static and the method of finding the internal and external forces and reactions of bodies and structures.
Identify the types of stress and emotions and the method of calculating them.
Preparing the student to understand the mechanics of different materials in order to use this information later in the specialized design lessons in the stages that follow the first stage.

Course objectives
Upon completion of the course the student should know
1. Types of lines used in engineering drawing and their thicknesses.
2. The geometric process used in the engineering drawing.
3. Draw the three projections of any solid shape.
4. Draw the three segments of any three-dimensional shape
5. Deduce the third projection and draw the stereotype of two known projections.
Thermodynamics is a branch of physics that deals with heat, work, and temperature, and their relation to energy, entropy, and the physical properties of matter and radiation. The behavior of these quantities is governed by the four laws of thermodynamics which convey a quantitative description using measurable macroscopic physical quantities, but may be explained in terms of microscopic constituents by statistical mechanics. Thermodynamics applies to a wide variety of topics in science and engineering, especially physical chemistry, biochemistry, chemical engineering and mechanical engineering, but also in other complex fields such as meteorology.

Continued study of materials and methods of building construction with emphasis on timber and steel materials and understanding their manufacture and properties. As well as the concepts of sustainable design and materials. |
Students have the opportunity to experience material capacity and behavior as well as construction methods in demonstrations and lab experiments. Furthermore, material applications and detailing in structural and non-structural building components are explored. Resulting from this course, students will gain a comparative knowledge of material properties and possible applications in construction
