UO Construction 1
\nASSESSMENT 2:
\nPROJECT
\nThis activity contributes to 40% of the total course grade.
\nAIMS:
\nThe aim of this assessment is designed to provide students with an appreciation and record of the wall and roof
\ndesign and erection processes involved in constructing a typical domestic-scale wall and roof. The exercise will be
\nrepresentative of the actual work undertaken on site \u2013 although to a much smaller scale of course.
\nCOURSE OBJECTIVES:
\nIt is beneficial to familiarise yourself with the relationship between the activity and the course objectives.
\n\u2022 CO1. Outline the various trends in development of modern housing.
\n\u2022 CO2. Identify the current work practices of residential building companies.
\n\u2022 CO3. Identify the principal components of single storey domestic construction.
\n\u2022 CO4. Demonstrate an understanding of the building regulations and standards.
\n\u2022 CO5. Explain the sequencing and coordination of building elements.

\nASSESSMENT DESCRIPTION
\nYou will work individually on this project ( help with nursing paper writing from experts with MSN & DNP degrees), to construct a wall and roof model Part A: Construction of a wall and roof
\nmodel. You will also be responsible to maintain and document a work schedule and log all critical facets of the
\nproject ( help with nursing paper writing from experts with MSN & DNP degrees) processes, as you build the model (Part B: Work schedule).
\nAn Assessment 1 Part A & B Discussion Forum will be optionally available to use for you to participate in discussion
\nwith your cohort. You will be able to use this forum specifically to discuss any challenges that you are facing while
\nconstructing the model. The teaching team and your fellow peers will be able to Help you in this forum. The more
\nquestions and photos posted and discussed, the better the learning for everyone.
\nPART A: CONSTRUCT A WALL AND ROOF MODEL (30%)
\nYou are required to construct a wall and roof model.
\nAssessment will be based upon consistency to the plans, depicting the relevant roof construction and wall frame and
\ntheir accurate placement and neatness of presentation.
\nUO Construction 1
\nThe plans provided on the learn online course site, include a truss roof frame, showing a \u201chip and valley\u201d roof. Select
\none to be constructed.
\nThe model shall show all members of the roof and ceiling framing, including bracing and a portion of the roof battens
\nand covering, sarking, ceiling material, insulation, and eaves detail. Not all the house roof framing needs to be
\nundertaken, just enough to adequately describe the hip and valley created from an L-shape portion of the house
\nplan.
\nThe model shall show at least one full length of the wall. All the components of a wall frame should be shown
\nincluding bracing. Not all the wall framing needs to be undertaken, just enough to adequately describe the typical
\nmembers of a wall. Remember you will need to provide walls to support the rest of the roof frame model. These
\nwalls can be solid wall, used for the remainder of the model.
\nConstruct the wall and roof model from balsa wood or similar material, angle cut to the sections to length and
\nas close as possible to the scaled size of the actual members in the house wall and roof design. The roof shall be
\npositioned on a supporting run of walls made from foam board, \u2018Masonite\u2019 or similar (except for the wall that is built
\nas per a typical house wall frame).
\nThe whole model shall be mounted on a stable sheet base. Include your name on the base so as it is visible when
\ntaking your photographs.
\nThe submission of your model will be online so consider carefully documenting and depicting your complete
\nmodel. A minimum of 10 photographs presented professionally in a word document that provides a detailed view of
\nyour model with clear labelling of key components and members of the wall and roof frame.
\nPART B: WORKS SCHEDULE (10%)
\nYou are also required to create a works schedule that describes key stages of the construction process. It is expected
\nthat the works schedule will detail the tasks involved in completing the main stages in your build,
\nduration\/estimates, showing how long each of these tasks took and materials\/resources, detailing the materials and
\nresources involved. It is suggested to convey this information professionally in table format.
\nGUIDE TO CONSTRUCTION OF A WALL AND ROOF MODEL
\nPLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING AS A GUIDE THAT ACCOMPANIES THE WALL AND ROOF MODEL ASSESSMENT TASK DESCRIPTION.
\nThis guide provides information that you may find useful to assemble your model as well as details of where the
\nmaterials can be purchased. It is a GUIDE only\u2026
\n\u2022 A suggested scale is 1:20, 1:25, 1:30 or 1:40.
\n\u2022 The building platform can be 5mm-6mm thick by 650mm X 450mm (approx.) plastic board, i.e. thin type
\nwebbing between the top and bottom (like cardboard). The same or similar cardboard may be used to make
\nthe walls of the building (except for the wall that will be depicting a wall frame). A piece of timber board may
\nalso be used as a base to support your model.
\n\u2022 It is recommended that the main structure is made from Balsa wood; however, you may choose to use an
\nalternative material if you deem it to be suitable.
\n\u2022 The materials that you would need to undertake the project ( help with nursing paper writing from experts with MSN & DNP degrees) are available from most hobby and crafts shops,
\nand some might be available from a hardware store.
\n\u2022 You will also need to determine the quantity of material required. You may opt to buy a complete sheet and
\ncut from this sheet rather than purchase individual pieces. For example, cut your rafters from 3-4mm thick
\nbalsa wood sheets.
\n\u2022 Use pins and\/or glue to construct the model and make connections.
\n\u2022 You will have to determine the type of roof that you wish to construct dependent on the design that you
\nhave selected. Suggestion: to meet assessment criteria, it is recommended that you use an L-shaped design
\nUO Construction 1
\nbecause it helps you to demonstrate required features of the project ( help with nursing paper writing from experts with MSN & DNP degrees) such as hips, ridge, gable, and valleys
\nincluding ceiling joists, hanging beams, trimmers, purlins, struts, strutting beams, under purlins and facia
\nboards.
\n\u2022 If you have selected to show a section with a truss this should be detailed with information.
\n\u2022 The length of the wall should show top and bottom plates, studs, jamb studs, noggings, and lintels over
\nopenings.
\nINTERPRETING AND READING PLANS
\nAssessment will be based upon consistency to plans, depicting all relevant wall and roof framing members and their
\naccurate placement and neatness of presentation. You may want to watch the following. It takes you through the
\nprocess of learning how to read typical construction drawings.
\n\u2022 Lynda.com course (2hr 20min, Beginner) – Rogers J no date, Construction Management: Readings Drawings
\n& Specifications, course, Lynda.com .
\nYou may also come across the roof and wall frame terms that you are not familiar with during the course and when
\nreading the plans for the construction of your wall and roof model. As would happen when working in the industry,
\nyou are required to research these terms. A good resource that you may be able to borrow from a library or refer to
\nthe eReading tab at the top of the course page, or purchase is the book: Wilkie, G 2011, Building your Own Home A
\ncomprehensive guide for Owners-Builders, 3rd Edition, New Holland Publishers, Australia.
\nFURTHER ADVICE
\n\u2022 Refer to the learnonline course site under resources for assessment exemplars.
\n\u2022 Assessment 2 Part A and B are to be submitted together as a one-word document.
\n\u2022 Please use the course Q and A forum to discuss any challenges that you are facing while constructing the
\nmodel. The teaching team and your fellow peers will be able to Help you in this forum. The more questions
\nand photos posted and discussed, the better the learning for everyone.<\/https:><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
