BLCT4306

This hands-on applied learning lab is a continuation of skills learned in Building Construction Lab III. Subject matter expands on an understanding of construction systems within the carpentry discipline and links other aspects of the construction industry to better prepare students for the job market. Students will produce a finish-quality cabinet, develop skills in the installation of interior finishes, and learn about mechanical systems to include electrical and plumbing. Students will also explore career paths in the construction industry which may include commercial construction, green building, small business ownership, and more. Much of the lab will be conducted on genuine construction job sites. Throughout the semester, students will be required to demonstrate learned competency through a series of proficiency assessments.
